  • Title: Isolated posterior femoral cutaneous neuropathy following intragluteal injection.
    Author: Kim JE, Kang JH, Choi JC, Lee JS, Kang SY.
    Journal: Muscle Nerve; 2009 Nov; 40(5):864-6. PubMed ID: 19623639.
    Abstract:
    Isolated posterior femoral cutaneous nerve lesions are rarely encountered. Electrophysiological documentation has only been made in a few cases. In this study we evaluated a 22-year-old woman with sensory loss and pain in the lower buttock and posterior thigh after left gluteal intramuscular injection. We assessed the posterior femoral cutaneous nerve using an accepted conduction technique. The results showed a normal response on the asymptomatic side, but no response on the symptomatic side.
