Description

Kevin Murray and co-authors report a case of scurvy in a 65-year-old woman with limited function and a thin social network. Their 2024 case report, published in French, describes her arrival at emergency care with weakening legs and poor mobility. The authors stress that vitamin C lack belongs on the list when bleeding looks odd, despite the disease's old-time image. Careful history taking on food and social facts often clinches the call. Low income and food insecurity should raise suspicion early.
