MICHELLE Trachtenberg’s cause of death is “undetermined” after her family refused an autopsy.
The Gossip Girl actress died at 39 due to an undetermined manner and cause, her official autopsy report said.
Trachtenberg’s mom found her daughter at around 8 am on Wednesday at her 51-story apartment building in Manhattan, cops said.
The star’s family objected to the full report, a spokeswoman for the city medical examiner’s office told the New York Post.
The halted autopsy means the cause of death wasn’t determined because there wasn’t enough information available.
Investigators aren’t expected to look more into her death due to her family’s wishes.
Trachtenberg reportedly underwent a liver transplant in the months before her death.
After news of her death broke, her friend revealed in a heartbreaking tribute that they had spoken while Trachtenberg was in her hospital bed.
The actress’ credits include major roles on hit shows Gossip Girl and Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Trachtenberg was an actress since childhood, starring as the titular role in the 1996 movie Harriet the Spy.
