The authors survey 131 publications on the epidemiology of leg ulcers in the obese patient, by successively interrogating computer data banks. By analysing this information they aim to determine the frequency of obesity in a population of patients with stasic ulcers, to see whether the ulcer has particular clinical characteristics in the obese patient, and finally, to know whether obesity affects the speed with which the ulcer heals. The results are given and assessed.
