  • Title: Ulcers associated with the swollen leg.
    Author: Taylor JS, Young JR.
    Journal: J Dermatol Surg Oncol; 1978 Sep; 4(9):691-5. PubMed ID: 212462.
    Abstract:
    A number of disparate conditions may produce ulcers in swollen legs. The most frequent causative condition is venous stasis; other causal disorders are lymphatic obstruction, mixed vascular anomalies, benign and malignant neoplasms and a number of miscellaneous conditions. Careful attention to cutaneous signs of these conditions may be helpful in arriving at an accurate diagnosis and appropriate therapy.
