[Algodystrophy--Sudeck syndrome].
Modern views are presented on the development of algodystrophy illustrated with own material with a detailed description of characteristic cases. In the whole material of 175 patients, four age groups, and two groups according to trauma site (hand and foot) were isolated. All patients were subjected to clinical, X-ray, and some to radioisotope examinations. Greatest number of cases of algodystrophy was found in the age group over 60 years which confirmed the observations of other authors. On the basis of the presented material the authors think that of greatest importance are early diagnosis, treatment with of greatest importance are early diagnosis, treatment with analgesics, blood flow improving drugs, and salmon calcitonin, and rehabilitation treatment. It seems also that treatment with magnetic field may be beneficial--however, too small material of patients makes general conclusions impossible.
