Abstract:Mondor's disease in association with hepatitis C. We report a case of a 40 years old patient suffering from Mondor's disease. Neither a malignancy nor a disturbance of the clotting system was found. This case is remarkable for the association with hepatitis C.
“…Most of the cases are idiopathic but trauma, surgery, excessive physical activity and rarely breast carcinoma have been considered a predisposing factor. It is rarely associated with hereditary protein C, protein S deficiency or infections as herpes zoster and hepatitis C. [1,[7][8][9][10][11][12] A higher prevalence of hepatitis C virus in patients with thrombosis and association with antiphospholipid antibodies has been demonstrated [10,11].MD has been described after a mammotome biopsy and after transaxillary breast augmentation [12,13]. Doppler ultrasound is the technique of choice for confirming the diagnosis [14].…”

“…In den letzten Jahren konnte eine deutlich verbesserte Ansprechrate bei Hepatitis-C-Patienten mit pegylierten im Vergleich zu nicht pegylierten Interferon-α-Präparaten festgestellt werden[4,5,8, 11]. Im Gegensatz dazu fanden sich deutlich positive Hautreaktionen nach intrakutaner Testung von PegIntron ® und Pegasys ® ,wobei Injektionen von IntronA ® keine Hautveränderungen induzierten (⊡ Abb.…”
