Abstract

In 1865 Trousseau first described the association between venous thrombosis and malignancy. We now know that unprovoked deep vein thrombosis of the legs precedes the diagnosis of malignancy in more than 7% of the cases. In bilateral deep vein thrombosis the risk of occult malignancy exceeds 40%. We describe a patient with bilateral deep vein thrombosis as presenting symptom of pancreatic cancer.
