Femoral neuropathy due to iliac hematoma

Abstract

In healthy people without a coagulopathy or who are not treated by anti-coagulant, appearance of a femoral neuropathy due to the pressure exerted by an iliac hematoma is very rare. Most of the cases are young individuals in whom iliac muscle is tearing during sporting, which causes bleeding from the intramuscular vessels ending up with an iliac hematoma which exerts pressure on the neighboring femoral nerve through iliac fascia. Pressure is usually on the inguinal ligament level. All the clinical symptomatology regarding a pure femoral nerve lesion is apparent. To achieve femoral nerve decompensation, inguinal ligament must be dissected and the hematoma must be drained.
