Resumen

Mondor's disease is a clinical entity characterized by the appearance of a palpable cord-like lesion on the surface of the body. It is generally considered self-limiting benign thrombophlebitis that resolves in four to eight weeks without any specific treatment. It presents in the case of sudden appearance and favorable, spontaneous evolution. A literature review on the subject is carried out.
