Abstract

Complex regional pain syndrome type I (CRPS-I) is a complex disorder characterised by pain, autonomic dysfunction, and decreased range of motion. The syndrome was believed as a well-recognized disorder in adults but, less commonly recognized in children. CRPS-I after vaccination has been rarely reported. We reported an 11-year-old young girl with CRPS-I due to rubella vaccine.
