" local condition " might be an option.

Status localis

Any suggestions on how to handle this term in English? Local status? Leave as

is?

This appears in a Russian case history as Status localis (Latin) in a list of

the findings of the physical examination. The only context is that the status

localis has not changed. There are many hits in Google but they appear to be

primarily non-English sites.

TIA,

Hello Olga.

I understand that " localis " means " regarding the affected tissue/organ " .

It seems that " status localis " is especially used in branches ad

dermatology, stomatology, otolaryngology.

I paste here below a couple of links. There is a possibility that you

should use " status localis " . I'm not a native speaker, though.
