متن کاملSurgery for Meralgia Paresthetica: neurolysis versus nerve resection.
AIM Neurolysis with transposition of the nerve and nerve resection are commonly performed surgical procedures for appropriate managing Meralgia Paresthetica (MP). But long-term outcome of these two procedures are uncertain. This case-series study came to address follow-up results of these two surgical procedures for managing MP. MATERIAL AND METHODS We prospectively described 14 consecutive n...
متن کاملUltrasound-guided Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve Block in Meralgia Paresthetica
Meralgia paresthetica is a rarely encountered sensory mononeuropathy characterized by paresthesia, pain or sensory impairment along the distribution of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN) caused by entrapment or compression of the nerve as it crossed the anterior superior iliac spine and runs beneath the inguinal ligament. There is great variability regarding the area where the nerve pie...
