Mondor's disease.
Mondor's disease, better known as superficial thrombophlebitis of the breast, is an uncommon disorder. Trauma and surgical biopsies head the top of the list of known causes. Over the past 25 to 30 years, various authors have proposed some new etiologies; however, the clinical course of the disease remains unchanged. This article describes three patients who presented for office visits and were diagnosed as having Mondor's disease. Although Mondor's disease is not a precancerous lesion, patients with atypical clinical courses should undergo close follow-up.

Evaluation of intraoperative anticoagulants in microvascular free-flap surgery.
This retrospective study evaluated anticoagulants used during surgery to determine efficacy and associated complications. The patient population was comprised of 15 patients who underwent microvascular free-flap surgery for wound coverage of the lower one third of the leg. Results indicated that the use of heparin in conjunction with other anticoagulants was associated with the development of more hematomas compared with the use of aspirin and dextran, both separately and together.
