Five out of 12 lateral femoral cutaneous nerves, removed at routine autopsies, showed pathologic changes in myelinated nerve fibers in the vicinity of the inguinal ligament. These changes included both local demyelination and Wallerian degeneration, particularly affecting the fibers with the largest diameters. The presence of polarized internodal swellings on single nerve fibers from two specimens suggested that mechanical factors were involved in pathogenesis. Endoneurial vascular thickening confined to the region of the inguinal ligament was also seen and may be implicated in the production of some of the symptoms of meralgia paresthetica (MP).
在常规尸检中取出的12条股外侧皮神经中，有5条在腹股沟韧带附近的有髓神经纤维出现了病理变化。这些变化包括局部脱髓鞘和华勒变性，尤其影响直径最大的纤维。来自两个标本的单根神经纤维上出现的极化节间肿胀表明发病机制涉及机械因素。还观察到仅局限于腹股沟韧带区域的神经内膜血管增厚，这可能与感觉异常性股痛（MP）的一些症状产生有关。
