On postoperative day 46, the patient presented with weakness of his left upper extremity due to multiple cerebral and cerebellar infarctions, with no evidence of atherosclerotic or cardiogenic thrombi. An abdominal computed tomography (CT) showed a pancreatic tumor with multiple liver metastases. Extremely high D-dimer and the CT findings suggested Trousseau\u2019s syndrome associated with a rapidly emerging neoplasm as the etiology of the brain infarction. Although further thrombotic events did not occur, his condition deteriorated rapidly and died on the 31st days of onset. The autopsy revealed multiple small infarctions, with multiple thrombi in the cerebral hemispheres, brain stem, and cerebellum. Histological evaluation revealed pancreatic adenocarcinoma with nodal and liver metastases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A hypercoagulable state associated with the aggressively emerging pancreatic adenocarcinoma, accompanied by cancer cell production of mucin, may be a potential mechanism for cancer-related thrombosis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In patients who received intensive surgical treatment and encountered unexplained brain infarctions in the multi-arterial territory, Trousseau\u2019s syndrome should be considered, and investigation for occult malignancy is required.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2020.11.113","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,22]],"date-time":"2020-11-22T10:06:21Z","timestamp":1606039581000},"page":"605-609","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Trousseau\u2019s syndrome associated with rapidly emerging pancreatic adenocarcinoma soon after esophagectomy"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"77","author":[{"given":"Sang-Woong","family":"Lee","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ryo","family":"Tanaka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshiro","family":"Imai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hiroko","family":"Kuwabara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshinobu","family":"Hirose","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kazuhisa","family":"Uchiyama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-136-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2544","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1097-0142(19960615)77:12<2544::AID-CNCR18>3.0.CO;2-S","article-title":"Trousseau\u2019s syndrome in association with ovarian carcinoma","volume":"77","author":"Evans","year":"1996","journal-title":"Cancer"},{"key":"R2-136-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1723","DOI":"10.1182\/blood-2006-10-053736","article-title":"Trousseau\u2019s syndrome: multiple definitions and multiple mechanisms","volume":"110","author":"Varki","year":"2007","journal-title":"Blood"},{"key":"R3-136-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"323","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-149-5-200809020-00007","article-title":"Systematic review: the Trousseau syndrome revisited: should we screen extensively for cancer in patients with venous thromboembolism?","volume":"149","author":"Carrier","year":"2008","journal-title":"Ann.
