Medical - Medical (general)
Italian term or phrase: palla sierosa
Il s'agit d'une conversation entre un technicien de la santé (Giovanni) et un stagiaire.

- Cos'è un fuori vena Giova'?
- Si fanno la cocaina nelle vene dei polpacci, perché sono le ultime che gli sono rimaste, e succede che non ci pigliano. La roba gli finisce nel muscolo, ci resta per un po', infetta e corrode tutto. Si forma una palla sierosa e se non la dreni fa necrotizzare tutto quello che c'è intorno.

D'avance, merci de votre aide.

boule séreuse
Explanation:
Sieroso = séreux

C'est une sorte d'épanchement de liquide, qui forme une "poche".
Si tu veux garder le terme italien, tu peux utiliser "boule" (ce qui est juste) ou si tu veux donner une connotation plus médicale ou précise, tu peux dire "poche séreuse" ou "bourse séreuse".
Disons que "boule" indique assez clairement le visuel de la chose :-)
