AbstractA patient with no medical history was admitted to our hospital with consciousness disturbance and diagnosed with intracerebral hemorrhaging in the bilateral hemisphere based on computed tomography. A blood test showed an abnormal coagulation capacity. He died of intracerebral hemorrhaging 11 hours after the onset. An autopsy revealed latent advanced prostate cancer metastasis to multiple organs. Notably, we found no evidence of intracerebral hemorrhaging, including arteriovenous malformation or cancer metastasis, in the brain. He was ultimately diagnosed with intracerebral hemorrhaging due to coagulopathy associated with latent advanced prostate cancer. Coagulopathy caused by advanced prostate cancer, which was first identified by autopsy, can lead to intracerebral hemorrhaging.
