Overview

Mondor's disease is a rare condition which involves thrombophlebitis of the superficial veins of the breast and anterior chest wall. It sometimes occurs in the arm or penis.

Historical Perspective

It is named after Henri Mondor (1885-1962), a surgeon in Paris, France who first described the disease in 1939.


Differentiating Mondor's Disease from other Diseases
