Enfermedad de mondor y mamoplastías

Abstract

Aim: Review the disease incidence in patients who had mammoplasties in a private clinic on a 11 year-period. The purpose is to describe their symptoms and signs, diagnosis, treatment and evolution. Materials and Method: 355 women who underwent cosmetic mammoplasties were studied. Those reconstructive surgeries secondary to breast cancer and those with other previous oncological history were excluded. The information was collected from clinical files. Results: 710 breasts operated between 2008-2018 are analyzed, six of them (6/710) evolved Mondor disease (0.8%). The diagnosis was made clinically. All cases received oral and local anti-inflammatory therapy, responding favorably. Discussion: There is a few published literature about it. Bilateral cases are less reported. It appears to be associated with surgeries of the submammary sulcus and it is not clear that it requires therapeutic cure. Conclusions: Mondor’s disease is infrequent, can occur secondary to mammoplasty, diagnosis is clinical, treatment is symptomatic, all cases had satisfactory evolution without sequelae.
