Abstract

Since there have been few large series studies to date, we investigated the relationship between Trousseau's syndrome associated with cerebral infarction and its clinical associations with ovarian cancer. In this study, we investigated the association between cerebral infarction onset and ovarian cancer. Eight-hundred twenty-seven consecutive ovarian cancer patients from 4 affiliated academic institutions were included in the study over a 12 years period. All patients were histopathologically diagnosed as epithelial ovarian cancer and were analyzed retrospectively. The 27 patients (3.2%) presented with cerebral infarction during the study period, 14 patients onset prior to treatment (1.7%), and 13 patients onset after start of initial treatment (1.5%). Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis was performed for onset of Trousseau's syndrome and various clinical and pathological parameters. There was no statistical significance between the occurrence of Trousseau's syndrome with age or International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage; however, univariate analysis and multivariate analysis demonstrated a statistically significant association between clear cell carcinoma (CCC) and non-CCC histology. Thus, our...Continue Reading
