[Disseminated intravascular coagulation with microangiopathic hemolytic anemia and bone necrosis associated with a prostatic microcarcinoma].
Presentation of a case of disseminated intravascular coagulation with micro-angiopathic hemolytic anemia, associated with a micro-carcinoma of the prostate. In the absence of other etiology it is postulated that the carcinoma was responsible for the hematological disturbance in spite of its small size andlack of either metastases or mucin secretion. The unusual discovery in this disease of bony necroses of the vertebrae, which are attributed to ischemia following micro-thromboses, is also discussed.
