ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

The classical presentation of acute reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) or triple-phase bone scintigraphy usually consists of increased periarticular uptake in each phase. The authors present a rare case of acute adult RSD characterized by bone hypofixation of Tc-99m MDP. Reflex sympathetic dystrophy in adults and children is reviewed.
