Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) occurred after closed Ender's pinning of a pathologic fracture of the humerus in a 58-year-old man with metastatic prostatic carcinoma. A review of the oncologic and urologic literature revealed that coagulopathy can be associated with prostatic carcinoma. This association seems not to have been previously reported in the orthopedic literature.
