  • Title: Hemangiomatosis presenting as meralgia paresthetica.
    Author: Yamamoto T, Kurosaka M, Marui T, Mizuno K.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 2001 Mar; 36(3):518-20. PubMed ID: 11227012.
    Abstract:
    The authors present a 15-year-boy with meralgia paresthetica caused by the recurrence of a diffuse congenital hemangiomatosis in the pelvic region. Relief of the patient's symptoms was achieved by neurolysis of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve in the thigh and partial excision of the tumor. To our knowledge, hemangiomatosis has never been suggested as a cause of meralgia paresthetica.
