Evidence of motor system reorganization in complex regional pain syndrome type 1: A case report.

Background: Central nervous system reorganization, particularly in networks devoted to somatosensation, is thought to be a significant feature of complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS).

Aims: In the present case report, we evaluated the corticomotor system of a woman suffering from CRPS, as she started and completed her rehabilitation, in order to explore whether CRPS could also be linked to changes in motor networks.

Methods: The patient, a 58-year-old woman, was diagnosed with right-hand CRPS.
