Reflex sympathetic dystrophy in children
Abstract
Reflex sympathetic dystrophy is becoming increasingly recognized in the pediatric population, yet there is very little about the disease in standard pediatric texts and nothing in the emergency medicine literature. Failure to diagnose Reflex sympathetic dystrophy in a timely fashion greatly decreases the likelihood of recovery. The diagnosis is primarily clinical. This report is intended to increase emergency physicians' awareness of this painful, disabling problem.
