    AbstractWe report a patient who developed unilateral temporary meralgia paresthetica after caesarean section. A 28-year-old morbidly obese woman underwent caesarean section under combined spinal and epidural anesthesia. Intraoperative position was 5-degree head down lithotomy position. She noted pain and hypesthesia along the anterolateral aspect of the right thigh on the second postoperative day, when postoperative continuous epidural analgesia was stopped. The pain and sensory impairment resolved 8 days after surgery without medications.
