Meralgia Paresthetica

Jane Nithya Tolson Solomons et al.

Summary: This review article summarizes the epidemiology, etiology, clinical presentations, and latest treatment modalities of meralgia paresthetica, including the latest data about peripheral and spinal cord stimulation therapy. However, the strength of evidence for treatment choices in meralgia paraesthetica is weak, and more extensive studies are needed.

Ultrasound of the Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve A Review of the Literature and Pictorial Essay

Marco Becciolini et al.

Summary: This article reviews the ultrasound findings in patients with meralgia paresthetica, discussing the anatomy of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve and potential entrapment sites. Various pathological cases are presented to aid in recognizing ultrasound patterns of meralgia paresthetica, and the experience with ultrasound-guided treatment is also discussed.

Meralgia paraesthetica as complication of patient positioning A not fully controllable risk

L. Brandt et al.

Summary: Meralgia paraesthetica is a condition caused by compression or stretching injury of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve, leading to sensory loss, paraesthesia, and pain in the anterolateral region of the thigh. It can occur idiopathically or as a complication of surgical or intensive care patient positioning. Although the exact mechanisms and legal implications are unclear, the condition can occur with different types of positioning and may be difficult to prevent due to anatomical variability.
