Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a debilitating condition affecting the limbs that can be induced by surgery or trauma. This condition can complicate recovery and impair one's functional and psychological well-being. The wide variety of terminology loosely used to describe CRPS in the past has led to misdiagnosis of this condition, resulting in poor evidence-base regarding the treatment modalities available and their impact. The aim of this review is to report on the recent progress in the understanding of the epidemiology, pathophysiology and treatment of CRPS and to discuss novel approaches in treating this condition.
复杂性区域疼痛综合征(CRPS)是一种影响肢体的使人衰弱的病症,可由手术或创伤引发。这种病症会使恢复过程复杂化,并损害人的功能和心理健康。过去用于描述CRPS的各种宽泛术语导致了对该病症的误诊,从而造成关于现有治疗方式及其影响的证据基础薄弱。本综述的目的是报告在CRPS的流行病学、病理生理学和治疗方面的最新认识进展,并讨论治疗该病症的新方法。
