title: [An unusual case of the coup-de-fouet syndrome. Eutrophic and cicatrizant effect of a preparation with a taurine base].
abstract: An unusual case of "pedrada" sindrome is presented. Skin ulcers were observed as late and persistent sequelae on the affected limb. This finding appeared to have no precedent in the literature. New suggestions are made with regard to the cause of the syndrome and excellent results obtained with a taurine preparation are reported. Prophylactic administration of taurine in the management of this syndrome is proposed.
