According to the National Institutes of Health, a small bowel obstruction is a mechanical blockage in the gut. The most common cause of small bowel obstruction is adhesions that can develop after surgery.

The autopsy determined that Presley had undergone bariatric surgery or gastric bypass surgery prior to her death, but determined that this had “no relation to the immediate cause of death.”

The singer-songwriter, who was Elvis Presley’s only child, died in January. She was 54 years old.

The sudden news of Presley’s death earlier this year came from her publicist Sam Mast, who in a statement to ABC News at the time noted that the Presley family was “shocked and devastated by the tragic death of their beloved Lisa Marie.”
