Abstract
Common causes of lower-extremity ulcers are relatively easy to diagnose, but exact wound diagnosis needs always a holistic approach and a careful evaluation of the wound patient. Systematic assessment and the use of check-lists provides diagnostic tools. This review aims to provide clinicians with an overview of the different aetiologies of leg ulcer by describing the clinical characteristics of each aetiology. It also aims to provide tools for health-care providers when assessing a lower-extremity ulcer patient.
