Tight Bra in a 34-Year-Old Woman: An Unusual Cause of Mondor's Disease.

Maria Vincenza Polito1, Pierluigi De Cicco2, Rosa Apicella3.   

Abstract

Mondor's disease is characterized by thrombophlebitis of the superficial veins of the breast and the chest wall. The list of causes is long. Various types of clothing, mainly tight bras and girdles, have been postulated as causes. We report a case of a 34-year-old woman who referred typical symptoms and signs of Mondor's disease, without other possible risk factors, and showed the cutaneous findings of the tight bra. Therefore, after distinguishing benign causes of Mondor's disease from hidden malignant causes, the clinicians should consider this clinical entity.
