Although leg ulcers have many causes, the most common etiology is venous or arterial insufficiency. The prime objective in the evaluation of leg ulcers is to uncover the precipitating pathologic process, and the first goal of therapy is to correct or control this underlying condition. Simple laboratory tests and office procedures are adjuncts in diagnosis. Topical care of leg ulcers includes gentle debridement, use of wet dressings and, in selected cases, skin grafting.
尽管腿部溃疡有多种成因,但最常见的病因是静脉或动脉功能不全。评估腿部溃疡的主要目的是找出引发病变的病理过程,而治疗的首要目标是纠正或控制这一潜在状况。简单的实验室检查和门诊操作是诊断的辅助手段。腿部溃疡的局部护理包括轻柔清创、使用湿性敷料,以及在特定情况下进行皮肤移植。
