recrūdēscentia f (genitive recrūdēscentiae); first declension (New Latin, medicine)

1. the reopening of a wound, dehiscence
   • 1745, Iohannis de Gorter, Chirurgia Repurgata:

     Quoniam putrefacta medulla in cavernis oſsium hærens non poteſt exprimi, ut feri poteſt ex parte molli, continua manet ſcaturigo, unde ulceris per- tinacia, & recrudeſcentia.

     Since the putrefacting marrow cannot be removed from the inside of the bones which it is clinging to, — as would be doable were it soft — a constant flowing is to be seen, hence the ulcer's persistence and reopening of the wound.

2. recrudescence

First-declension noun.

• → English: recrudescence
