Abstract

Purpose of Review

The purpose of this review is to present an overview of ilioinguinal (IL) neuralgia and evaluate the current literature.

Recent Findings

Treatment of IL neuralgia includes pharmacotherapies, perineural injections, radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation, neuromodulation, and neurectomy. The efficacy of these therapies varies considerably.

Summary

IL neuralgia is a common pain disorder characterized by pain in the lower abdomen and upper thigh. While various modalities can be used in the treatment of IL neuralgia, the efficacy of these modalities is at times limited. Dorsal root ganglion stimulation exhibits promise in the treatment of IL neuralgia. More research is needed to better address the needs of patients suffering from this disorder.
