La enfermedad de Mondor, es una entidad caracterizada por el desarrollo de tromboflebitis de venas subcutáneas. La localización más frecuente, es la cara ántero lateral de la pared torazo-abdominal. El cuadro clínico se caracteriza por la aparición de un cordón palpable, doloroso, que involuciona en un período de tiempo variable, generalmente corto. La patogenia no ha sido aclarada, pero se han identificado una serie de factores predisponentes como: cirugía mamaria, estados de hipercoagulabilidad, electrocución, infecciones, uso de drogas vasoconstrictoras, compresión de vasos sanguíneos y esfuerzos físicos intensos. La asociación descrita con patologías sistémicas, tales como el cáncer de mama y estados de hipercoagulabilidad, obliga a realizar una completa evaluación de los pacientes afectados, para descartar las mencionadas afecciones. Presentamos tres pacientes con enfermedad de Mondor, desencadenada luego de realizar esfuerzos físicos intensos.Mondor's disease is an entity, characterized by the development of thrombophlebitis of subcutaneous veins. The most common location is theanterolateral aspect of the thoraco-abdominal wall. The clinical condition is characterized by the appearance of a painful palpable cord, which retrogresses in a generally brief, variable period of time. The pathogenesis has not been established, but it has been identified a number of predisposing causes such as breast surgery, hipercoagulables states, electrocution, infections, use of vasoconstrictors, compression of blood vessels and intense physical effort. Since it is associated with systemic diseases such as breast cancer and hipercoagulables states, it is required to conduct a complete evaluation of affected patients to rule out the above mentioned conditions. We present three patients with Mondor's disease, which was triggered as a result of intense physical effort.
