Abstract
An atypical variant of reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) is presented in a 45 year old female with a vascular malformation of the right arm and chest wall. The mechanism was thought to be compression of the br achial plexus by the malformation. The unique scintigraphic features o f this presentation of RSD in the ulnar arterial distribution are illu strated.
