Abstract

Complex regional pain syndrome (CPRS) and Raynaud’s disease are disorders characterized by vasomotor disturbances associating with abnormal autonomic nervous system. We present a case of CRPS I which had a history of recurrence and no initiating event. Raynaud’s disease accompanying with CRPS I was also diagnosed clinically in the patient. It is considered that a sympathetic dysfunction which underlies the pathophysiologies of both disorders may be responsible for coexistence of these two distinct entities. Recurrence and unknown etiology of CRPS I might be accounted for temporary alterations in the sympathetic dysfunction.
