Intrathecal management of complex regional pain syndrome: A case report and literature.
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a painful condition typically resulting from a traumatic event. Pain control in these patients is often difficult and requires a multimodal approach. Our objectives are to present a single intrathecal pain management regimen for CRPS and provide a literature review of intrathecal pain management options in CRPS. ⋯ We provide a framework for treatment of CRPS, which could be useful for practitioners dealing with this difficult and painful condition.
