OCHOA ROJAS, Carlos Darío  e  TORO GUTIERREZ, Carlos Enrique. Distrofia simpática refleja idiopática. Rev.Colomb.Reumatol. [online]. 2008, vol.15, n.4, pp.326-330. ISSN 0121-8123.

Reflex sympathetic dystrophy is characterized by intense and disproportionate local pain, associated with vasomotor and trophic changes. Extremities are commonly involved, especially when a trauma or surgery, even minor, has occurred. Likewise, spontaneous or idiopathic presentation of this syndrome is much less frequent. Here we describe the clinical picture of a young woman presenting with idiopathic reflex sympathetic dystrophy. Then we present a brief review, emphasizing on diagnosis and treatment of this disease.

Palavras-chave : reflex sympathetic dystrophy; complex regional pain syndrome; algodystrophy; bone scintigraphy.
