would make the diagnosis of CRPS type II. This a long-lasting disease which makes the multidisciplinary approach the cornerstone for the correct approach and planning. 11 The complexity and the rarity of this pathology on a high-level athlete created a deep and constant discus- sion in order to take advantage of several medical specialties for plan- ning the treatment of this athlete. Although there aren’t consen- sus protocols for the treatment 12-14 , and in order to promote a fast and complete rehabilitation, the athlete followed a complete and long-lasting recovery functional program as whole, since he was without sports competition for some months, allied to percutaneous electrostimulation, physiotherapy and pharmacological agents. The good functional recovery avoided sympathectomy blockages, cognitive behavior therapy, neuro- modulation and stimulation of neu- roplasticity, which are usually used for the chronic and refractories cases. On high competition athletes, where the time out of competition is very important, it is fundamental to explain the pathology and to involve the athlete to follow a long treat- ment plan to have healing without sequelae of CRPS. Between 30 and 50% of patients with CRPS, especially those with late diagnosis and treat- ment, have clinical recurrence and/ or irreversible functional sequelae: chronic pain and edema, ulceration, skin infection, dystonia and myo- clonus. In this case report, of particular interest for the clinical rarity that it represents, the recommended treatment allowed the athlete the return to sports at a pre-injury level, without relapse and sequelae of the CRPS, which are quite often found associated with this pathology. The authors declare no conflicts of inte- rest or economic. Correspondence to: [email protected] Bibliography 1.
