While misleading because they don't list the cause, it's techically accurate. Dr. Atkins fell and suffered a subdural hematoma (blood clot in the brain) as a result of striking his head on the sidewalk when he fell. Even though emergency surgery was performed to remove the blood clot and relieve the pressure it caused on the brain, he eventually died from the injury.
