Best Answer

The official cause of death was cerebral hemorrhage.

[Improve Answer: ]

On his death certificate, the cause of death is stated as a Cerebral Hemorrhage, internal bleeding to the head. However, at the time of his death, Stalin was in very good health, and Doctors were unable to configure what could have triggered this. After Stalin's death, Nikita Kruschev released classified NKVD documents, which stated that Stalin was not in-fact killed by a Cerebral Hemorrhage, but rather an overdoes of Warfarin, which is Rat Poison, which thins the Blood. His Liver was immensely swollen as he laid on his sofa, if was visible through the back under the Rib-cage. Doctors stated in was a Cerebral Hemorrhage, in fear that if they announced it was poison, the Beria would have them shot. If you read Stalin's medical record online, then it becomes clear. It is heavily suspected he was poisoned by the NKVD Chief Lavrenty Beria, in order to prevent a possible next purge, and to out gain him in power, which he did do, until he was eventually executed in December of 1953.
The cause of death was a cerebral hemorrhage (a stroke).

However, scientists in 2009 found that he had rat poison in his system, which causes a stroke.

He died on March 5 of 1953, at the age of 74.

He was killed by a stroke, however scientists in 2009 found rat poison in his system that leads to a stroke, so it is most likely he was actually assassinated.

He died in his residence in Kuntsevo, roughly 15 miles west of Moscow.
