Since guidelines and large-scale studies are lacking, there are substantial regional differences in diagnostics and management in MP care. Our study aims to report on current diagnostic and therapeutic strategies as well as time trends in clinical MP management in Germany. Patients hospitalized in Germany between January 1, 2005, and December 31, 2018, with MP as their primary diagnosis were identified using the International Classification of Disease (ICD-10) code G57.1 and standardized operations and procedures codes (OPS). A total of 5828 patients with MP were included. The rate of imaging studies increased from 44% in 2005 to 79% in 2018 (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.001) and that of non-imaging diagnostic studies from 70 to 93% (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.001). Among non-imaging diagnostics, the rates of evoked potentials and neurography increased from 20%\/16% in 2005 to 36%\/23% in 2018 (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.001, respectively). Rates of surgical procedures for MP decreased from 53 to 37% (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.001), while rates of non-surgical procedures increased from 23 to 30% (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u20090.001). The most frequent surgical interventions were decompressive procedures at a mean annual rate of 29% (\u00b1\u20095) throughout the study period, compared to a mean annual rate of 5% (\u00b1\u20092) for nerve transection procedures. Between 2005 and 2018, in-hospital MP care in Germany underwent significant changes. The rates of imaging, evoked potentials, neurography, and non-surgical management increased. The decompression of the LFCN was substantially more frequent than that of the LFCN transection, yet both types of intervention showed a substantial decrease in in-hospital prevalence over time.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10143-023-01962-0","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,13]],"date-time":"2023-02-13T16:33:06Z","timestamp":1676305986000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Diagnosis and treatment of meralgia paresthetica between 2005 and 2018: a national cohort study"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"46","author":[{"given":"Benn","family":"Sch\u00f6nberg","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mareen","family":"Pigorsch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Doerte","family":"Huscher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shlomo","family":"Baruchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jennifer","family":"Reinsch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anna","family":"Zdunczyk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christoph","family":"Scholz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ann-Kathrin","family":"Uerschels","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nora F.","family":"Dengler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,13]]},"reference":[{"issue":"8","key":"1962_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"560","DOI":"10.1212\/wnl.6.8.560","volume":"6","author":"R Wartenberg","year":"1956","unstructured":"Wartenberg R (1956) Meralgia paresthetica.
