Posterior femoral cutaneous neuralgia.
A middle-aged male developed a right posterior femoral cutaneous neuralgia that persisted for 10 years without any associated neurologic, electrophysiologic, or radiologic findings. Five years after onset, surgical exploration of the subgluteal area identified a venous malformation surrounding the nerve. The syndrome appears unique and exemplifies all major aspects of the sensory distribution of the nerve complex.
