It is a compressive or traumatic mononeuropathy, characterized by burning pain and/or discomfort in the anterolateral thigh, without motor or muscle strength changes, with preserved reflexes. The authors report the case of a 52-year-old male with a history of low back pain presented from two-year sensory dysesthesias and paresthesias in the right anterolateral thigh, consistent with meralgia paresthetica; they also describe the first reported use of O<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> therapy to relieve the intractable pain associated with MP.</p> ER -
