title: [A Case of Disseminated Carcinomatosis of the Bone Marrow with Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation Caused by Cecal Cancer Successfully Treated with mFOLFOX6].
abstract: Disseminated carcinomatosis of the bone marrow is often accompanied by disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome (DIC). This condition is rarely caused by colorectal cancer, and there are no established therapies.
  A 66-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of DIC. She had been diagnosed with cecal cancer and multiple metastases of the lymph nodes, liver, and bone. She was diagnosed with disseminated carcinomatosis of the bone marrow and treated with systemic chemotherapy by modified FOLFOX6 (mFOLFOX6). Subsequently, the DIC rapidly resolved, and she was discharged from the hospital.
