pubmed:abstractText |
Acute disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) occurring in patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC) is a rare entity with a dismal prognosis. Conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy is usually not possible. Preliminary reports have suggested that non-myelosuppressive weekly 24-h infusion of high-dose 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and leucovorin (HDFL) may be helpful.
