摘要：

Non bacterial thrombotic endocarditis is a frequent cause of cerebrovascular complications in patients with cancer Clinical features are often misleading and symptoms are hardly linked to valvular thrombosis in the absence of systemic embolism. We describe here a case mainly illustrating two aspects: clinical and neuroradiological manifestations of multiple distal brain infarcts and the value of transasophageal echocardiography for the diagnosis.
