lüll Martorell s hypertensive leg ulcer: case report and concise review of the literature Graves JW; Morris JC; Sheps SGJ Hum Hypertens 2001[Apr]; 15 (4): 279-83Hypertensive leg ulcers (Martorell's ulcers) are a unique form of lower extremity ischaemic leg ulcer. First described by Martorell, and Hines and Farber in the 1940s, these ulcers are defined by pain disproportionate to the size of the ulcer, specific location on the lower extremity, female-to-male predominance, association with long-standing, often poorly, controlled hypertension, and healing response to specific antihypertensive agents. We present a case of Martorell's hypertensive ischaemic leg ulcer and a concise review of the 104 previous cases in the world's English literature. Hypertensive ischaemic leg ulcers will be more commonly recognised with a renewed appreciation of the existence of this clinical entity.|Aged[MESH]|Antihypertensive Agents/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Hypertension/*complications/*drug therapy/physiopathology[MESH]|Leg Ulcer/*complications/*drug therapy/physiopathology[MESH] |
