Hola, Robert; lo comento en respuesta. Tenía la sensación de que "crust" era la expresión formal de "scab", y aunque veo que se usan ambas de manera indistinta, por ejemplo "scab" casi no aparece en combinación con "serosanguinous" mientras que los ejemplos con "crust" son relativamente frecuentes.

En todo caso, sí; scab, igual que crust parecen opciones igualmente válidas para traducir directamente "costra serohemática".

¡Saludos!

PS
No sé si en inglés ocurre lo mismo, pero en castellano tenemos "postilla" (scab), que es la costra "normal" que se genera habitualmente después de sufrir una herida. En castellano al menos cuando nos referimos a costra serohemática por ejemplo hacemos referencia a una postilla discretamente anormal, de coloración y aspecto distinto al de una postilla "normal". En inglés entiendo que "crust" puede utilizarse para ambas -¿scab también?
Robert Carter Jun 26:
Just wondering, why use "crust"? Don't we normally say "scab", and doesn't a scab normally consist of serum and blood? Please excuse my ignorance if this is a silly question.

crusting debería bastar;

Crust, on the other hand, always has a composition of dried blood, serum and dried exudate
https://www.sharedhealthservices.com/post/scab-versus-eschar

Crust: occurs from dried exudate overlying and impaired epidermis. The exudate can be composed of blood, serum, or pus
https://www.utmb.edu/pedi_ed/CoreV2/Dermatology/page_08.htm

Reconozco que es tentador añadir "serum-blood" o mejor incluso algo como "non-purulent crusting" o algo por el estilo, pero en tanto que uso habitual, "crusting" en este caso debería bastar para señalar una costra serohemática.

agree Isabelle Villancher : Yes, although I think it might be better to add "dried" (dried serum and blood)

Spanish term (edited): costra serohemática

crust // serosanguinous crust

Aunque personalmente me siga pareciendo redundante (ver comentario previo en Discussion), la alternativa a simplemente “crust” sería “serosanguinous crust” (incluyo algunos ejemplos de uso de esta última en la literatura original en inglés):


A 61-year-old woman who had undergone renal transplantation 10 years earlier presented with a 2-month history of a 2-cm painless, crusted nodule on a 4.5-cm erythematous base on her frontal scalp (Fig 6). The nodule was covered with a serosanguinous crust.

Ecthyma is a deeper version of impetigo, more commonly seen in patients with malnutrition and/or poor hygiene – vesicles and bullae progress to punched-out, deep ulcers with adherent, dehydrated, serosanguinous crust

serosanguinous crust over an area of erosion

En cuanto a crust vs. scab, tenía la sensación de que “crust” era la denominación formal del más coloquial “scab”, aunque -as per dicionary- parezca que puedan utilizarse indistintamente:


scab
: a crust of hardened blood and serum over a wound
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/scab

crust
1 : scab sense 2
2 : an encrusting deposit of serum, cellular debris, and bacteria present over or about lesions in some skin diseases (as impetigo or eczema)
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/crust#medicalDict...

scab
2 : a crust chiefly of hardened blood that forms over and protects a wound
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/scab#medicalDicti...


Si acaso señalar que “serosanguinous crust” aparece como relativamente frecuente mientras que “serosanguinous scab” parece expresión rarísima en ingles, lo que apuntaría de nuevo a un uso más formal de “crust” versus “scab”.

Reference:

serohemático: serosanguineous

I have found no mention of ¨serosanguineous scab/crust¨ although ¨secreción serohemática¨ is ¨serosanguineous drainage/discharge¨ and

Serosanguineous discharge is a normal drainage of fluid from a wound or incision site after surgery. The serum is a thin, often slightly yellow fluid that's mostly water, with a light pink tinge (the sanguine, or blood, element in the fluid). It typically lasts a few days as a wound heals.
