Abstract
Non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis (NBTE) causes myocardial and cerebral infarctions and is associated with advanced stages of malignancy. However, only a few cases of myocardial and cerebral infarctions have been reported in the same patient. We herein report a 47-year-old woman with advanced uterine and ovarian cancer who experienced acute myocardial infarction (MI) after receiving chemotherapeutic intervention for the cancer and hemorrhagic cerebral infarction 1 month after admission for acute MI, attributable to NBTE of the aortic valve. NBTE should be considered in patients with malignancies and life-threatening thromboembolism of important organs.
