Trousseau syndrome is known as conditions that cause stroke due to hypercoagulability associated with malignant tumor. Ovarian cancer is a major cause of this syndrome, but there is few report caused by ovarian mucinous adenocarcinoma. We report a rare case of this associated with mucinous adenocarcinoma. A 70-year-old woman admitted due to disorientation. Examinations revealed multiple cerebral infarctions and ovarian mucinous adenocarcinoma. The progression of mucinous adenocarcinoma is slow, but the progressed case is poor prognosis. Although our case had unfortunate outcome, in future both anticoagulant therapy and immediate treatment of cancer by careful monitoring with CA125 should be essential.
