Özet

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