Abstract

Thirty-four patients with minor causalgia as seen in civilian life are reviewed. They were predominently men in the fourth and fifth decades. The type of injury varied from minor blows to severe crush injuries. The pain was unusually burning and constant and was associated with vasomotor dysfunction. The patients were treated by various means. Sympathectomy gave relief in most cases, followed by sympathetic ganglion block, local operative procedures and local nerve block in that order of effectiveness.
