Abstract

Background: MERALGIA PARESTHETICA is a sensory neuropathy caused by involvement of lateral cutaneous nerve of thigh (LCT) that is originated from L2 and L3 spinal segments. Neurological examination is noticeable only for distributed sensation in the involved territory. The present study was carried out over the patients with definite diagnosis of MERALGIA PARESTHETICA (MP) referring to Shohada Tajrish and Loghman Hakim hospitals since 1999 till 2000, to determine whether the latency of P35 and P55 waves are increased or not. Materials and methods: 20 patients with unilateral MP had entered this case-control study. The control group was consisted of the unaffected lower limbs of the same patients' group. Then, latencies of P35 and P55 waves (msec) were compared between the two groups. Delayed latencies of greater than 10% were considered abnormal. Results: 20 patients, including 9 males and 11 females, with mean height of 166 cm and age of 42.7 years were studied. The P35 latency in the unaffected limb was 33.9±1.4 ms and in the affected limb was 42.7±2.7 ms (p<0.0001). These figures for P55 latency was reported 54±1.3 ms and 63.1±2.9 ms, respectively (p<0.0001). Conclusion: We have observed statistically significant delay in the appearance of P35 and P55 waves in MP disease. So, SSEP could be a reliable and sensitive method in the diagnosis of MP disease.
