Complex regional pain syndrome is a disease of uncertain pathogenesis that develops after a harmful triggering phenomenon and manifests itself by spontaneous pain or allodynia / hyperalgesia, not limited to the territorial distribution of a peripheral nerve and disproportionate to the triggering episode. We present a case that evolves with pain maintained over time, trophic changes and functional impotence despite the use of multiple therapeutic techniques. Early diagnosis and early treatment are essential to achieve a favorable outcome and avoid disabling complications

Palabras clave : Complex regional pain syndrome; Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy; Causalgia; Early diagnosis.
