title: [Neurogenic pain syndrome].
abstract: Several pathophysiologic mechanisms are known which induce neuropathic pain in presence of peripheral nerve damage. They help to explain the clinical features of neuropathic pain syndromes and why causal and symptomatic treatments can be effective. However, careful analysis of every pain syndrome is necessary in order to select the type of pain management required.
