an ilioinguinal nerve
The ilioinguinal nerve then perforates the transversus abdominis near the anterior part of the iliac crest, and communicates with the iliohypogastric nerve between the transversus and the internal oblique muscle.
The ilioinguinal nerve closely follows the iliohypogastric nerve on the quadratus lumborum, but then passes below it to run at the level of the iliac crest.
The inferior branch is the ilioinguinal nerve.
Cryoneurolysis has been used to treat disorders such as phantom limb pain, pain associated with intercostal nerves, foot neuromas, ilioinguinal nerves, occipital neuralgia, and many others.
It receives innervation from postganglionic sympathetic nerve fibers arriving via the ilioinguinal nerve and the posterior scrotal nerve.
It can also occur if the ilioinguinal nerve has accidentally been cut during a hernia repair.
The ilioinguinal nerve is visible at the upper left.
