Complex Regional Pain Syndrome-like Pattern in a Case of Pancoast Tumor.

We present the case of a 52-year-old male who was recently diagnosed case of a Pancoast tumor and presented to the pulmonary outpatient department with a complaint of pain in the shoulder and chest region which was burning type, associated with shoulder abduction weakness and poor hand grip. Subsequently, he was referred for a 99m-Tc bone scan for metastatic workup, which showed increased uptake in all the joints and long bones of the ipsilateral upper limb. This case highlights the importance of considering nontraumatic cause of pattern similar to complex regional pain syndrome.
