MERALGIA PARESTHETIGA A REVIEW OF 67 PATIENTS

Abstract
Medical records of 67 cases of meralgia paresthetica (MP) were reviewed to obtain demographic and clinical data pertinent to this disease. MP was found more often in men than women. There was a bimodal age distribution with peaks in the third decade as well as the fifth and sixth decades. Many clinical conditions were found associated with MP, the most important being obsesity and trauma. The etiological role of normal and pathological anatomy is discussed as well as therapeutic approaches to the disease
