Or perhaps "de l'êtinque"?  But prefixing "e" to "st" words is a dead rule in
French, although it was obviously alive in the past.  Looking through
a list of French medical terms, I find stabilisation, stase, statistique,
stéatorrhée, stéatose, sténose, stérilisation, stérilité, stéroïde, stimulant,
stomatite, stress, strie, struma, stupeur.  All of the Spanish equivalents
would surely have "est-".
