[Treatment of algodystrophic syndromes with calcitonin].
A general account of algodystrophic syndromes is followed by the presentation of results obtained with 160 MRC U/day extracted pig or 100 MRC U/day synthetic salmon calcitonin in 95 patients with the most common form (Sudeck's syndrome). Clinical, biohumoral and radiographic data are reported. There was no difference in the response to the two products. Excellent results were noted, first clinically and then radiographically. Some radiographs are presented.
