The latest news regarding the death of Kanye West's mum: the plastic surgeon who operated on his mother DONDA insists he is not responsible!

Dr. Donda West died suddenly on Saturday at the Centinela Freeman Regional Medical Center in Los Angeles, following complications we previously reported arose from cosmetic surgery.

However, surgeon Dr. Jan Adams denies making a mistake during the breast reduction and tummy tuck operation - or causing the hip-hop star's mother's death.

Adams claims it is likely she died from a heart attack, pulmonary embolism or massive vomiting, reports website TMZ.com.

He also admitted West often changed her mind about the operation during a four-month consultation period.

The L.A. County Coroner's Department will carry out an autopsy on Tuesday to determine what killed the 58-year-old. The Gold Digger rapper, who was in London when he heard the tragic news, has thanked fans for their messages of condolence.

He has also urged people to make a donation to the charity he co-founded with his mother - the Kanye West Foundation - instead of sending flowers.

Poor poppet - we're sending out big virtual hugs his way *sniff
