incidence of lateral femoral Cutaneous Nerve neuropraxia after anterior approach hip arthroplasty
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2010Co-Authors: Krista Goulding, Paul E Beaule, Anna FazekasAbstract:Background Although injury to the lateral femoral Cutaneous Nerve (LFCN) is a known complication of anterior approaches to the hip and pelvis, no study has quantified its’ incidence in anterior arthroplasty procedures.

treatment of meralgia paresthetica with ultrasound guided pulsed radiofrequency ablation of the lateral femoral Cutaneous Nerve
Pain Practice, 2012Co-Authors: Ian M. Fowler, Anthony A Tucker, Robert J MendezAbstract:: A 23-year-old female with an 18-month history of left anterolateral thigh paresthesias and burning pain consistent with meralgia paresthetica was referred to our clinic after failing trials of physical therapy, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories, gabapentin, and amitriptyline. We performed 3 lateral femoral Cutaneous Nerve blocks with corticosteroid over a 4-month period; however, each block provided only temporary relief. As this pain was limiting the patient's ability to perform her functions as an active duty service member, we elected to perform a pulsed radiofrequency treatment of the lateral femoral Cutaneous Nerve with ultrasound guidance and Nerve stimulation. After locating the lateral femoral Cutaneous Nerve with ultrasound and reproducing the patient's dysthesia with stimulation, pulsed radiofrequency treatment was performed at 42°C for 120 seconds. The needle was then rotated 180° and an additional cycle of pulsed radiofrequency treatment was performed followed by injection of 0.25% ropivacaine with 4 mg of dexamethasone. At 1.5 and 3 month follow-up visits, the patient reported excellent pain relief with activity and improved ability to perform her duties as an active duty service member. ▪

Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve Block
Pain Medicine, 2017Co-Authors: Ian M. Fowler, Paul G. MaliakelAbstract:: Useful in the diagnosis and treatment of the entrapment neuropathy of the lateral femoral Cutaneous Nerve (LFCN) known as meralgia paresthetica. Also can be used for surgical anesthesia and/or postoperative pain control for procedures on the anterolateral thigh such as skin graft harvesting and to alleviate tourniquet pain from lower extremity orthopedic procedures.

anatomical analysis of antebrachial Cutaneous Nerve distribution pattern and its clinical implications for sensory reconstruction
PLOS ONE, 2019Co-Authors: Weiwei Zhu, Zairong Wei, Shengbo YangAbstract:This study aimed to reveal the distribution pattern of antebrachial Cutaneous Nerves and provide a morphological basis for sensory reconstruction during flap transplantation. Forearm specimens containing skin and subCutaneous fat were obtained from 24 upper extremities of 12 adult cadavers. Cutaneous Nerves were visualized using modified Sihler's staining. Then the data was used to show the distribution pattern and innervation area of the forearm Cutaneous Nerve. The anterior branch of lateral antebrachial Cutaneous Nerve innervates 26% of the medial anterior forearm; the posterior branch innervates 38.21% of the lateral anterior forearm and 24.46% of the lateral posterior forearm. The anterior branch of medial antebrachial Cutaneous Nerve innervates the medial aspect of the forearm covering 27.67% of the anterior region; the posterior branch the lateral part of the forearm covering 7.67% and 34.75% of the anterior and posterior regions, respectively. The posterior antebrachial Cutaneous Nerve covers 41.04% of the posterior forearm. Coaptations were found between the branches of these Cutaneous Nerves. The relatively dense secondary Nerve branches were found in the middle 1/3 of the lateral anterior forearm and the middle 1/3 of the medial posterior forearm. The relatively dense tertiary Nerve branches were the middle 1/3 and lower 1/3 of the medial anterior forearm. The intradermal Nerve branches were the relatively dense in the middle 1/3 of the medial anterior and lateral posterior forearm. The middle 1/3 of the medial and lateral forearm had the relatively dense total Nerve branches. These results can be used sensory matching while designing forearm flaps for reconstruction surgeries to obtain improved recovery of sensory.
