Abstract

The purpose of this article has been to heighten awareness of the recognition, diagnosis, and therapy of the sympathetically maintained pain syndromes. Classification of RSD and causalgia as semantic subdivisions of SMP should be maintained until further laboratory and clinical analyses, with strict uniform diagnostic criteria, define similarities or differences in clinical behavior and therapeutic responses.
