Clinical symptoms of pelvic entrapment neuropathies are widely variable and frequently nonspecific, thus rendering it difficult to localize and diagnose. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and in particular MR neurography, has become increasingly important in the work-up of entrapment neuropathies involving the pelvic and hip nerves of the lumbosacral plexus. The major sensory and motor peripheral nerves of the pelvis and hip include the sciatic nerve, superior and inferior gluteal nerves, femoral nerve, lateral femoral cutaneous nerve, obturator nerve, and pudendal nerve. Familiarity with the anatomy and imaging appearance of normal and pathologic nerves in combination with clinical presentation is crucial in the diagnosis of entrapment neuropathies.
