One disadvantage of autologous bone harvesting is the patient's enduring postoperative pain at the donor site. Nerve injury is one of the postulated mechanisms that may account for this pain. The object of this study was to determine whether the lateral cutaneous branch of the subcostal nerve is vulnerable to injury in the process of obtaining grafts from the anterior iliac crest.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p content-type=\"fine-print\"><jats:italic>Methods.<\/jats:italic> Anatomical dissections were performed on 10 cadaveric specimens to ascertain the size of the T-12 subcostal nerve and its position in relation to the iliac crest.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p content-type=\"fine-print\"><jats:italic>Conclusions.<\/jats:italic> The lateral cutaneous branch of the subcostal nerve may lie as close as 6 cm from the anterior superior iliac spine. This nerve is very vulnerable to injury when harvesting bone from the anterior iliac crest. Knowledge of the anatomy may decrease the risk of injury to this nerve.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3171\/spi.2004.1.1.0087","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,5,7]],"date-time":"2009-05-07T16:01:59Z","timestamp":1241712119000},"page":"87-89","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Vulnerability of the subcostal nerve to injury during bone graft harvesting from the iliac crest"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"1","author":[{"given":"Dean","family":"Chou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Phillip B.","family":"Storm","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"James N.","family":"Campbell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"key":"b1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00007632-199505000-00012"},{"key":"b2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mus.1143"},{"key":"b3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"83","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-197254010-00008","volume":"54","author":"Coventry MB","year":"1972","journal-title":"J Bone Joint Surg Am"},{"key":"b4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"660","DOI":"10.1097\/01241398-199409000-00020","volume":"14","author":"D'Souza L","year":"1994","journal-title":"J Pediatr Orthop"},{"key":"b5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"726","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1440-1622.1999.01674.x","volume":"69","author":"Hill NM","year":"1999","journal-title":"Aust N Z J Surg"},{"key":"b6","first-page":"224","author":"Kuhn DA","year":"1986","journal-title":"Clin Orthop"},{"key":"b7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00007632-198912000-00009"},{"key":"b8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1227\/01.NEU.0000089482.80879.9A"},{"key":"b9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00006534-198406000-00014"},{"key":"b10","first-page":"224","author":"Lu J","year":"1998","journal-title":"Clin Orthop"},{"key":"b11","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"251","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02425075","volume":"8","author":"Maigne JY","year":"1986","journal-title":"Surg Radiol Anat"},{"key":"b12","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"798","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.84B6.12877","volume":"84","author":"Murata Y","year":"2002","journal-title":"J Bone Joint Surg Br"},{"key":"b13","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"677","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.71B4.2768321","volume":"71","author":"Summers BN","year":"1989","journal-title":"J Bone Joint Surg Br"},{"key":"b14","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1163","DOI":"10.1097\/00006534-199809020-00038","volume":"102","author":"van den Broecke DG","year":"1998","journal-title":"Plast Reconstr Surg"}],"container-title":["Journal of Neurosurgery: Spine"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/thejns.org\/view\/journals\/j-neurosurg-spine\/1\/1\/article-p87.xml","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/thejns.org\/downloadpdf\/journals\/j-neurosurg-spine\/1\/1\/article-p87.xml","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,13]],"date-time":"2020-11-13T23:38:46Z","timestamp":1605310726000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/thejns.org\/view\/journals\/j-neurosurg-spine\/1\/1\/article-p87.xml"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2004,7]]},"references-count":14,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1"},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3171\/spi.2004.1.1.0087","relation":{},"ISSN":["1547-5654"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1547-5654","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2004,7]]}}}
