black and white photograph of leg injury

Fig 6 An example of a typical ischaemic wound. Note the dense scar tissue around the periphery, the rolled edge, and the knobbly granulating base. It was a whitish grey colour, and not the normal healthy red. It was on the outer side of the leg and not on the subcutaneous surface of the tibia
