Trousseau's syndrome manifesting as multiple cerebral infarctions caused by bladder cancer

Cerebral infarction in patients with cancer is often called Trousseau's syndrome, which is a cancer-associated hypercoagulative state that causes thrombosis; however, the syndrome is rarely caused by bladder cancer. We report a case of Trousseau's syndrome manifesting as multiple cerebral...

description Cerebral infarction in patients with cancer is often called Trousseau's syndrome, which is a cancer-associated hypercoagulative state that causes thrombosis; however, the syndrome is rarely caused by bladder cancer. We report a case of Trousseau's syndrome manifesting as multiple cerebral infarctions caused by advanced bladder cancer in a 46-year-old male patient. The patient died due to the infarctions in the hospital. The prognosis of patients with Trousseau's syndrome caused by advanced cancer is poor. According to changing urological clinical settings, considering the risk of Trousseau's syndrome has become crucial for urologists treating patients with advanced cancer.
