Extending as lumbosacral plexus doses from the upper lumbar area to the lower sacrum and passing near several lower abdominal and pelvic organs, this plexus is subject to a number of injuries and diseases, most of them secondary. It can have many possible causes of lesions: trauma, tumor invasion, infection, radiatin, psoas abscess, retroperitoneal hemorrhage, iatrogenic or "idiopathic neuralgic amyotrophy".
