Angela Dickson (X) Dec 5, 2006:
Can you give us the French sentence in which the phrase is contained? and/or the surrounding sentences? By 'HT portal' do you mean portal hypertension?
Marilyn Amouyal Dec 5, 2006:
Stigmata can be characteristic signs. Spoliation can be depletion. Of what depends on your context.
Christine Mercier (asker) Dec 5, 2006:

characteristic pathological signs of damage

"Stigmata" in the medical context are findings on the physical examination characteristic of pathological conditions. For instance, swelling of the knuckles and proximal finger joints are stigmata of rheumatoid arthritis.

In the context of liver disease (portal hypertension), we are looking for stigmata such as an enlarged liver, jaundice, spider angiomas, etc.

neutral Drmanu49 : No disagreement with Michael but stigmata is English medical speak.

I agree with you Manu. I changed "stigmata" simply for clarity.
agree Marilyn Amouyal : That sounds more like English medical speak. The damage I gather would be to the liver.

Thank you Catherine.
neutral Angela Dickson (X) : I'm not at all sure 'spoliative' is used - the only web reference is to Webster's 1913 dictionary.
