- Abstract
- This publication is an invited topical review that summarizes the recent findings regarding the neglect-like symptoms observed in patients with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). Some of these patients tend to ignore or have an altered mental representation of the affected limb. CRPS include bodily schema and image alterations and reflect a potential top-down effect of visuo-spatial attention on somesthesic and nociceptive integration, linked to a directed hyperattention. Prismatic adaptation could act not only on bodily schema through visuo-spatial attention change, but also on pain and motricity. This opens potential therapeutic perspectives bypassing higher cognitive levels and especially consciousness and intentional control.
