Úlceras isquêmicas hipertensivas da perna (úlceras de Martorell) se manifestam como úlceras necróticas dolorosas tipicamente localizadas na face lateral da panturrilha, que são bilaterais em 50% dos casos. Histologicamente, há arteriolosclerose estenótica subcutânea. Todos os pacientes são hipertensos e mais da metade são diabéticos. A diferenciação do pioderma gangrenoso e da arteriolopatia calcificada é importante, pois tanto o prognóstico quanto o manejo são diferentes. | |||
