Zusammenfassung: | Idiopathic lumbosacral plexitis or lumbosacral radiculoplexus neuropathy is a disease characterized by nerve damage in lumbar and/or sacral plexus without trauma, mass effect or diabetic complications. A 47-year-old male patient with right groin pain and loss of right leg muscle strength is presented in this case report. Neuropathy was detected in the L4 nerve root by electromyography and magnetic resonance neurrographic imaging. The underlying cause was investigated; however, it is linked to the idiopathic outcome. Idiopathic lumbosacral neuropathy is a lumbosacral plexus disease in which no underlying pathology plays a role in causing severe pain and muscle weakness. Patients should be avoided urgently operation because of the sudden onset symptoms. |
