"In further defining reflex sympathetic dystrophy, previously defined as casualgia problems, it is helpful to understand what I term sympathetic reactivity, a component of the reflex sympathetic dystrophy issue. You may call when you were in grade school your teacher described the "fight or flight" mechanism. Picture a scenario where you are walking down a dark street in a not-so-good neighborhood at about 1:00 A.M. You are lost and the area is poorly lit. As you pass by an alleyway someone jumps out in front of you. Your body prepares for either "fight" or "flight." Essentially your heart begins to beat faster and your blood vessels dilate to increase circulation to your arm and leg muscles. The nerves at the tips of your fingers and your arms actually became heightened in sensitivity for better tactile response. Your eyes become wide open with your pupils dilated to take in any activity and action that might occur. You may even begin to sweat at this point, and there is a significant surge in intensity of all of your senses.

Causalgia PAIN DIAGNOSES INDEX What is causalgia? Causalgia is a rare syndrome that follows partial peripheral nerve injuries. It is characterized by a triad of burning pain, autonomic dysfunction and trophic changes. Severe cases are called major causalgia. Minor causalgia describes less severe forms, similar to reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD). RSD has predominant muscular and joint symptoms, with osteoporosis being common on x-ray. What causes causalgia? Causalgia is caused by peripheral nerve injuries, usually brachial plexus injuries. Denervation causes hypersensitivity resulting in increased pain and increased norepinephrine release causes the sympathetic findings. What are the clinical findings? Pain: usually burning, and prominent in hand or foot. Onset in the majority is within 24 hours of injury. The median, ulnar and sciatic nerves are the most commonly involved. Almost any sensory stimulation worsens the pain. Vascular changes: Either increased blood by vasodilatation (warm and pink) or decreased blood by vasoconstriction (cold, mottled blue).

Physicians use a variety of drugs to treat RSDS. Elevation of the extremity and physical therapy are also used to treat RSDS. Injection of a local anestheticis usually the first step in treatment. TENS (transcutaneous electrical stimulation), a procedure in which brief pulses of electricity are applied to nerve endings under the skin, has helped some patients in relieving chronic pain. In some cases, surgical or chemical sympathectomy interruption of the affected portion of the sympathetic nervous system is necessary to relieve pain. Surgical sympathectomy involves cutting the nerve or nerves, destroying the pain almost instantly, but surgery may also destroy other sensations as well.

15. Phantom Limb And Causalgia: The Tragic Enigmas Phantom limb pain and causalgia were two clinical pain syndromes that couldnot be explained in terms of specific nerve pathways. causalgia. http://www.library.ucla.edu/libraries/biomed/his/painexhibit/panel4.htm

Relief of Pain and Suffering Phantom limb pain and causalgia were two clinical pain syndromes that could not be explained in terms of specific nerve pathways Amputees experienced phantom limbs: the distinct sensation that the missing arm or leg was still attached, often held in a distorted, intensely painful, position. Causalgia, first described by the American physician, Silas Weir Mitchell , was even more puzzling. After an injury had healed, the patient experienced intense, burning pain and sensitivity to the slightest vibration or touch, usually in the hand or foot, but at a site some distance removed from the original wound. Both disorders sometimes persisted for years. Anesthesiologists used localized nerve blocks to relieve the pain and neurosurgeons developed techniques for severing the nerve pathways involved; but neither treatment was consistently successful. In the great wars, these relatively rare conditions afflicted many soldiers and baffled and disturbed their doctors: Mitchell in the American Civil War , the French surgeon in World War I , William Livingston in World War II . How could phantom limb and causalgia be explained in terms of the specific neural pathways that conducted pain sensation directly from the site of tissue damage?

16. Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Sudek’s Atrophy, Neurodystrophy, Reflex Dystrophy, and causalgia Sympathethicpain has numerous synonyms; some of the most common are Sudek’s atrophy http://www.sepaincare.com/rsd.htm

Information About Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) or Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy: Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a disorder that occurs occasionally after almost any injury, such as an ankle sprain or fracture, an operation, or soft tissue injury. Reflex Sympathetic Dystropy (RSD) is an older term for the same disorder. Today, many specialists feel that Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome is a more descriptive term. Interestingly, the pain syndrome is not a new discovery; CRPS was first documented by a doctor treating patients during the Civil War. Signs and Symptoms: Symptoms include burning and aching pain, extreme sensitivity to the slightest touch, and signs of sympathetic nervous function dysfunction (temperature and color change and swelling) in the affected extremity. Onset can be immediate or within weeks after an injury. Signs and Symptoms of RSD EARLY PHASE (immediate to several weeks) LATE PHASE (if untreated at early phase) VERY LATE PHASE (6-12 months after early phase) Extremity hot or cold, skin mottled; can be red, changing to white

Julia K. Terzis, M.D., Ltd. Home Up Feedback Contents ... Search Causalgia; Neuroma In Microsurgery we encounter also cases related to nerve tumors. As in any kind of tumor, the uncontrolled growth of cells can lead to dysfunction of the nerve. Common nerve tumors treated in our Institute are: Schwanommas or Neurilemmomas. These tumors are derived from the Schwann cells that normally surround like an envelope the peripheral nerves. These tumors usually present with symptoms that reflect their anatomic position. Removal of Schwanommas is done most of the times without requiring the removal of the affected nerve. Neurinomas. They are also derived from the Schwann cells but they usually affect the peripheral parts of the nerve. They sometimes can be palpated as small painful lumps under the skin. Because these tumors also include some nerve fibers, their removal can cause injury to the affected nerve. Von Recklinghausen's disease. When neurofibromas are multiple then a diagnosis of Von Recklinghausen's disease can be made. This is a congenital disease. The patient can present with multiple nodules protruding from the skin and with pigmented brownish skin lesions that are called café au lait spots. These neurofibromas need to be excised because they can cause serious problems. Except for the overall disfigurement with all its associated psychological problems, some of these tumors can transform into malignant neoplasms. Removal of these tumors may require removal of the affected nerve.

TM Causalgia MedFriendly.com TM TM A B C D ... Z Causalgia is persistent and extreme burning sensations, usually in an arm or leg, accompanied by redness. These sensations usually occur after the brachial plexus (a major nerve in the spine that goes to the arms) or a peripheral sensory nerve (a nerve in the body outside of the brain or spinal cord that provide sensation) has been partially injured. The peripheral sensory nerves typically involved in causalgia are the median nerve (which goes to the forearm) or the tibial nerve (which goes to the leg and foot). The partial injury to the previously mentioned nerves causes the nerve supply to be interrupted.
