Scope note: Afecciones caracterizadas por dolor que afecta a una extremidad u otra región del cuerpo, HIPERESTESIA y disfunción autonómica localizada después de una lesión del tejido blando o del nervio. El dolor se asocia generalmente con ERITEMA, cambios de la TEMPERATURA CUTÁNEA, actividad sudomotora anormal (es decir, cambios en la sudoración debidos a una alteración de la inervación simpática) o edema. El grado del dolor y de otras manifestaciones es desproporcionado con el que debería esperarse por el fenómeno causal. Se han descrito dos subtipos de esta afección: tipo I (DISTROFIA SIMPÁTICA REFLEJA) y tipo II (CAUSALGIA). (Pain 1995 Oct;63(1):127-33)

Scope note: Conditions characterized by pain involving an extremity or other body region, HYPERESTHESIA, and localized autonomic dysfunction following injury to soft tissue or nerve. The pain is usually associated with ERYTHEMA; SKIN TEMPERATURE changes, abnormal sudomotor activity (i.e., changes in sweating due to altered sympathetic innervation) or edema. The degree of pain and other manifestations is out of proportion to that expected from the inciting event. Two subtypes of this condition have been described: type I; (REFLEX SYMPATHETIC DYSTROPHY) and type II; (CAUSALGIA). (From Pain 1995 Oct;63(1):127-33)
