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