Cellulite de Ludwig en régression
français vers anglais
Médecine
Médecine : soins de santé
Hospital report of acute respiratory condition
This is part of the total three points in the summary of this patients notes. I have read up about this term and it seems that a more commonly used term is actually "Ludwig's angina" I am not sure if this is the relevant term here and I also do not know the best way to expression "régression" - I am assuming that this word indicates that the condition is lessening.
I would like to know, would it be relevant to use "Ludwig's angina" here rather than my own translation of
"Reducing Ludwig’s cellulite of angina." (which I know sounds odd).
The full conclusion is formatted in this section as three bullet points, and reads:
"En Conclusion
Cellulite de Ludwig en régression
Décompensation cardiaque de réplétion en amélioration
Dyspnéé laryngéé persistante avec alcalose respiratoire aigue."

Ludwig's angina in regression
you don't need the cellulite part and regression is used in English as well or you may use "improving" or
"subsidence/dropping/lessening"

"Ludwig's angina, otherwise known as angina ludovici, is a serious, potentially life-threatening cellulitis, or connective tissue infection, of the floor of the mouth, usually occurring in adults with concomitant dental infections and if left untreated, may obstruct the airways, necessitating tracheotomy. It is named after the German physician, Wilhelm Friedrich von Ludwig who first described this condition in 1836.[2][3] Other names include "angina Maligna" and "Morbus Strangularis".
Ludwig's angina should not be confused with angina pectoris, which is also otherwise commonly known as "angina". The word "angina" comes from the Greek word ankhon, meaning "strangling", so in this case, Ludwig's angina refers to the feeling of strangling, not the feeling of chest pain, though there may be chest pain in Ludwig's angina if the infection spreads into the retrosternal space..."

if you have already mentioned "Ludwig" in the text, no need to repeat this.

Regression of Ludwig's angina
Hello,
According to Gary S. Hill's Dictionary of Medical and Biological Terms either cellulitis or angina can be used but angina is more common.
Also, regression is simply transalted as regression according to the same reference book. Itis a medical term adn means that the angina is subsiding.

: except that this is not particularly idiomatic - and the Ludwig's angina is regressing/resolving, it is not completely cured

regression of Ludwig's angina
According to Garay S. Hill's Dictionary of Medical and Biological Terms either cellulitis or angina can be used (not both) but angina is more common.
Regression is a medical term frequently used and simply means getting better or lessening. Regression is the correct medical term to use.
