title: [A case of advanced gastric cancer with Trousseau syndrome and pulmonary embolism].
abstract: A 60-year-old man showed symptoms associated with pulmonary embolism and anemia in June 2011, and was subsequently diagnosed with stage IV gastric cancer. Following frequent multiple cerebral infarctions and the development of symptoms, the patient was diagnosed with Trousseau syndrome. A total gastrectomy was performed to control bleeding. After the surgery, oral ingestion became possible. The patient was discharged and a hypodermic injection of heparin was given by the home doctor.
