Repeated lumbar sympathetic blockade for complex regional pain syndromes type I--a case report.

Abstract
The causal mechanisms of reflex sympathetic dystrophy are not limited purely to sympathetic hyperactivity, but sympathetic blockade and physical therapy are still the mainstays of current treatment modalities. We reported a case of reflex sympathetic dystrophy over the left lower leg, who was successfully treated with repeated lumbar sympathetic blocks and physical therapy.
