It is a purely sensory branch with contributions from L2-L3 nerve roots and it enters to the thigh though the opening between the inguinal ligament and its attachment to the anterior iliac spine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hydatid disease (Greek for \u2018watery cyst\u2019) is an uncommon cause of peripheral nerve compression. Progressive neurological and mechanical deterioration over the years was the most frequently reported disease course.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We present a patient with MP caused by a large echinococcal cyst-mass, localized in the pelvis. A woman was admitted on to our hospital with chronic mild lower abdominal pain, severe constipation, which had lasted for about a month, and pain on the left thigh. The diagnosis after all (blood, serological and radiological tests) was an echinococcal large cystic mass (9cm x 4cm).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Total cystectomy was performed en block. Postoperatively there were significant improvement of constipation and completed resolve of femoral cutaneous nerve compression. The pain on the left thigh has disappeared.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Key words:<\/strong> Echinococcus cysts, meralgia paresthetica, antihelminthic, hydatid disease.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ABSTRACT Originally known as the Bernhardt-Roth syndrome, meralgia paresthetica (MP) is a condition caused by entrapment of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve of the thigh, (Greeke:<span class=\"excerpt-hellip\"> [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":-1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[496],"tags":[2148,2151,321,2150,2149],"eidos-arthrou":[1808],"keyword":[2154,2152,2155,2153],"language":[1841],"class_list":["post-2005","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-iss_1_6","tag-christodoulidis-gregory","tag-iliadis-charalambos","tag-saridi-maria","tag-toska-aikatherini","tag-wozniak-greta","eidos-arthrou-anaskopiseis","keyword-antihelminthic","keyword-echinococcus-cysts","keyword-hydatid-disease","keyword-meralgia-paresthetica","language-english"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2005","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2005"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2005\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9511,"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2005\/revisions\/9511"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2005"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2005"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2005"},{"taxonomy":"eidos-arthrou","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/eidos-arthrou?post=2005"},{"taxonomy":"keyword","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/keyword?post=2005"},{"taxonomy":"language","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/periodiko.yaba.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/language?post=2005"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
