Would that fit with "ulcère scléreux, ulcère artériel"? |

| AN (Martorell’s) arteriolosclerotic ulcer / hypertensive leg ulcer Explanation: In French, AN = Angiodermite nécrotique In English, (Martorell’s) arteriolosclerotic ulcer or hypertensive leg ulcer - see explanation below These two sections below are from the same website. "L’Angiodermite nécrotique (AN, ou ulcère de Martorell, du nom du cardiologue espagnol qui l’a décrit la 1ère fois) est une cause inhabituelle d’ulcères de jambe mais n’est pas pour autant une cause rare." "Martorell was the first to describe a specific form of leg ulcer that now bears his name. He brought together a series of patients who presented one or several ulcers to the outer aspect of the back of the leg, with associated arterial hypertension (HT) and negative signs: peripheral pulses present, arterial calcifications absent, and chronic venous insufficiency. These ulcers spread quickly, elicited pain spontaneously, and were predominantly seen in women [2, 3]. Since this description was made, it has been postulated that these ulcers could be linked to arteriolosclerosis of the vessels in the dermis [4, 5]. Martorell’s ulcer was soon renamed hypertensive leg ulcer [4], a term which is currently still used for this entity in the English-language literature. More recently, others have proposed the term (Martorell’s) “arteriolosclerotic ulcer” [6], in order to demonstrate that the pathogenesis of Martorell’s ulcer is not associated exclusively with hypertension, as we will go on to discuss. The situation is further complicated by French researchers using the term “angiodermite nécrotique”, a term that describes the clinical appearance, while the English term attempts a pathophysiological approach. Finally, it is important to remember that literal translations of the French term such as “necrotic angiodermatitis” or “necrotizing angiodermatitis” should be avoided as they are wholly incomprehensible to and unknown to researchers " -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 47 mins (2020-11-23 09:53:54 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry - forgot the French quote! "L’Angiodermite nécrotique (AN, ou ulcère de Martorell, du nom du cardiologue espagnol qui l’a décrit la 1ère fois) est une cause inhabituelle d’ulcères de jambe mais n’est pas pour autant une cause rare."
