Abstract

Mondor’s disease of the breast is a rare benign breast condition characterized by thrombophlebitis of the superficial veins of the chest wall. Mondor’s disease was described in 1939 by Henry Mondor. It’s a benign self limited problem associated most commonly with trauma and breast surgery . However the etiology of this disease is not clear. Our aim is to discuss Mondor’s disease properties by manuscript.
