Abstract |
Reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) is a chronic pain syndrome with prominent cutaneous findings. Atrophy has been considered to be the most common manifestation of the disease. We catalogued the abnormal skin conditions in RSD by means of chart review. Vascular problems were most common, followed by inflammatory diseases, infections, and atrophic diseases. Atrophic disease accounts for a minority of the skin problems seen in RSD. Most cutaneous complaints were related to vascular disease, particularly edema. (J Am Acad Dermatol 2001;44:1050-1.)
