The hallmark of Martorell HYTILU are the location at the laterodorsal leg or </span>Achilles tendon (in the present series 100%) in a patient with usually long-standing and controlled hypertension (95–100%), often accompanied by diabetes (40–60%).

The narrow lumen may be occluded by acute or organized thrombosis. In the French multicenter serie, at 8 weeks only 10% (3/31 patients) healed by conservative means, and this could not be improved with the use of topical application<span> of platelet-derived growth factor-BB (becaplermin) (18% healing, 5/28 patients, no significant difference). In the Zurich series, 84% of patients (26/31) had wound surgery (necrosectomy, split skin graft) to heal the ulcer and 10% (3/31) died from wound infection and sepsis, amongst two under immunosuppression received for misdiagnosed pyoderma gangrenosum.</span></span></span></p></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>Martorell HYTILU can easily be confounded with pyoderma gangrenosum or necrotizing vasculitis. Physicians involved in wound treatment should be sensitized to the typical clinical setting: a progressive and extremely painful skin infarction at the laterodorsal leg in a hypertensive and often diabetic subject. Diagnosis is confirmed histologically on a long-enough, narrow, but deep spindle-shape skin and ulcer biopsy, showing a highly characteristic form of stenotic and occlusive subcutaneous arteriolosclerosis.
