Mondor's disease: mammography and ultrasound findings

Mondor's disease of the breast is a superficial thrombophlebitis of the veins of the breast characterized by the appearance of a thickened fibrotic cord in the subcutaneous tissue. This is a rare, benign and self-limited disease, which presents with pain and skin retraction at the site of the affected vase. We report two cases of patients with Mondor's disease and show the typical mammography (case 1) and ultrasound (case 2) findings.
