- Discussion:
- in lateral gluteal region, cutaneous nerves are lateral cutaneous branches
of T12 &
Iliohypogastric (
L1 ) nerves;
- superior region: receives superior cluneal nerves (lateral branches of
dorsal rami of
L1,
L2,
L3)
- these superior cluneal nerves may be damaged by iliac crest grafting
- medial area is supplied by middle cluneal nerves, lateral branches
of dorsal rami of
S1,
S2,
S3;
- inferior area receives inferior cluneal nerves, branches of the
post femoral cutaneous nerve ;
