Abstract: Chronic ulcers are most often seen as a complication to venous leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers and pressure ulcers. Ulcers often display an underlying medical condition, which makes it mandatory to treat these individuals in a multidisciplinary setting. Modern ulcer therapy has changed over the latest decade, and as described in this review a number of new modalities have been included. The major group of ulcers often presents with well-defined features, but attention should be directed towards ulcers with atypic appearance such as ulcers related to calciphylaxis, hypertension (Martorell) and pyoderma.
