English term or phrase: pathway of tissue breakdown
A pressure ulcer (also known as a pressure sore) is a lesion of the skin and underlying tissues. Although multifactorial in nature, it appears to be primarily caused (as the name indicates) by prolonged, uninterrupted pressure localized on those tissues by the weight of the body. Pressure ulcers are thought to develop progressively, although the typical pathway of tissue breakdown is still being debated

mécanisme physiologique typique de la décomposition tissulaire


Explanation:
Dans ce contexte précis, j'interprète "pathway" comme l'enchaînement des réactions physicochimiques déclenchées par l'augmentation de la pression et qui conduisent à la nécrose des tissus. "Mécanisme physiologique" me semble être une traduction appropriée.
