lateral femoral cutaneous nerve(English)

• a pure sensory nerve that arises from the L2 and L3 spinal nerve roots and travels downward lateral to the psoas muscle, and then crosses the iliacus muscle. Near the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS), it then passes under or through the lateral aspect of the inguinal ligament (IL) and over the sartorius muscle into the thigh. Running caudally, it enters a lenticular compartment between the sartorius muscle and the tensor fasciae lata muscle, formed by a double layer of the fascia lata. Association with meralgia paresthetica. Knowledge of its anatomical variations is also crucial for preventing nerve injury during the insertion of needles into the ASIS, the harvesting of the anterior iliac crest bone grafts, and other surgical procedures. Grafts can also be used to repair facial nerve injuries and soft-tissue defects
