According to a new report, an autopsy of Michael Jackson revealed that he was relatively healthy at the time of his death.

The Associated Press reported Thursday that the news outlet had reviewed a copy of the Los Angeles County Coroner's autopsy report, and it revealed that Jackson was relatively healthy. ET contacted the Coroner's office, and they released the following statement, "No copies of the Coroner report have been released to anyone other than LAPD and the DA per their request."

The AP reports that the autopsy revealed arthritis in Jackson's spine and some fingers, mild plaque buildup in his legs, and a reduced lung capacity, but a doctor tells the AP that those factors would not have contributed to the King of Pop's death.

"His overall health was fine," Dr. Zeev Kain, who reviewed the autopsy report, told the AP.

The AP reports that the autopsy listed Jackson's weight as 136 pounds, which they say is within normal limits for a man who is 5' 9".

The autopsy did, however, reveal that Jackson's arms were indeed riddled with punctures, that he had scarring of the face and neck, and that his lips and eyebrows were tattooed. The AP also reports that a bald area of the top of his head was tattooed from ear to ear.

The Los Angeles County Coroner announced Jackson's cause of death in August, revealing that his death was ruled a homicide.

The announcement indicated that the King of Pop died of "acute Propofol intoxication" and "other conditions contributing to death: Benzodiazepine effect." A Benzodiazepine is a sedative-hypnotic.

"The drugs Propofol and Lorazepam were found to be the primary drugs responsible for Mr. Jackson's death. Other drugs detected were: Midazolam, Diazepam, Lidocaine and Ephedrine," the announcement went on to state.

Jackson passed away on June 25 at age 50 after he was found unresponsive in his bedroom.
