Abstract:
Mondor's disease is a benign, self-limited process with spontaneous resolution, which is frequently caused by breast surgery, such as axillary lymph node dissection. We present a case of Mondor's disease that occurred after an axillary osmidrosis operation, which is a less invasive procedure; Mondor's disease may be considered as a possible postoperative complication following an axillary osmidrosis surgery.
