Case ReportsPeripheral nerve vasculitis presenting as complex regional pain syndrome.
To report the clinical, electrodiagnostic, and pathologic findings in 3 patients who presented with complex regional pain syndrome as their primary manifestation of peripheral nerve vasculitis. ⋯ To our knowledge, this is the first report demonstrating that the inflammatory nerve injury seen with peripheral nerve vasculitis can result in complex regional pain syndrome. Clinical and electrodiagnostic assessments can help in the identification and management of these patients.
