Abstract

Trousseau syndrome is a pathological condition that triggers thromboembolic symptoms including cerebral infarction due to a thrombotic tendency in cancer. We experienced a rectal cancer patient presenting a spectrum of thrombotic symptoms, and in an autopsy confirmed many intravascular thrombi such as nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis. Although diagnosis and treatment of Trousseau's syndrome and nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis is often difficult, it is one pathological condition which clinicians must have expert knowledge.
