Corey Haim's autopsy has revealed that he suffered from pulmonary congestion, according to People.

The actor, who died on Wednesday age 38, was rumoured to have died from a drug overdose. Although the official results of Haim's autopsy have not been released to the public, the actor's mother Judy Haim claimed her son died from heart problems.

In an interview with Access Hollywood, Judy revealed that Los Angeles Coroner Chief Craig Harvey reported that her son had an enlarged heart and water in the lungs.

Harvey maintained that his findings were incomplete. "The final cause of death has been deferred pending additional tests that have been ordered," the Coroner Chief said.

The actor had a high fever and complained of flu-like symptoms before his death.
