- Abstract
Clinical report of a young patient with femoral neuropathy on anticoagulation therapy is presented. He was referred to the electromyography laboratory for evaluation of right thigh weakness. Femoral neuropathy secondary to iliopsoas hematoma is not an uncommon presentation in persons with bleeding disorders especially in persons with haemophilia. But this clinical situation is rarely reported in young patients on anticoagulation therapy. The clinical presentation and extent of nerve injury will depend on the site of hemorrhage.
