Genitofemoral Nerve Articles

ORLANDO, FL USA (UroToday.com) - The research group aims to determine if transfer of a primarily motor somatic nerve (femoral, F) to the anterior vesical branch of the pelvic nerve (PN) allows better reinnervation of the detrusor muscle after spinal root injury, compared to a primarily sensory nerve (genitofemoral, GF).

The genitofemoral neuropathy is one of the most common causes of groin pain after surgery. Especially, the groin pain induced by genitofemoral nerve injury during herniorrhaphy is a well-known complication.
