Journal Title: Dicle Tıp Dergisi - Year 2014, Vol 41, Issue 3

Abstract

Complex regional pain syndrome type 1 (CRPS-1) is a chronic pain syndrome characterized by severe pain, swelling, autonomic dysfunction and dystrophic changes in affected extremity. RSDS is a rare disease in children and usually occurs after trauma, however, without trauma may also occur. We were detected CRPS-1 activated by cold and stress and characterized by recurrent attacks in the bilateral upper extremities in 14 year-old girl, which is similar to Raynaud's phenomenon. We present this case with the literature because of its rarity and atypical course. Key words: Complex regional pain syndrome, reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome, Raynaud’s phenomenon
