Cicatrisation potential was assessed in arteritic patients by an isotopic method employing technetium 99 m to measure cutaneous perfusion pressures. Pressure threshold-values obtained showed that cicatrisation was absent when pressure was below 35 cm of water, that infectious complications developed in half of the cases with values between 35 and 65 cm, and that cicatrisation generally occurred at values above 65 cm.
