Peripheral Nerve Stimulation for the Treatment of Meralgia Paresthetica
Meralgia paresthetica is a condition caused by entrapment of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve at the level of the inguinal ligament. This nerve is a purely sensory nerve and provides innervation to the anterolateral portion of the thigh. The condition can lead to numbness, paresthesia, dysesthesia, and pain over the anterolateral aspect of the thigh, which are exacerbated with walking, standing, and hip extension. First-line treatment for MP includes conservative measures such as weight loss and eliminating tight-fitted clothing. Neuropathic pain medications and corticosteroid injections are also treatment options for some patients with significant pain complaints. In more refractory cases, surgical intervention can be considered. Peripheral nerve stimulation has also been shown to be a helpful treatment modality for patients with refractory meralgia paresthetica. Here we report our experience utilizing peripheral nerve stimulation in patients with significant pain complaints related to refractory meralgia paresthetica.
