    AbstractChronic abdominal pain in the pediatric population has the potential to interfere with all aspects of life and daily functioning. Pain may originate from various sites including the viscera, fascial layers, muscles, or peripheral nerves. The incidence of somatic neuritis, more specifically ilioinguinal and iliohypogastric neuralgia, remains unknown. We report a case highlighting the use of pulsed radiofrequency in the treatment of lower abdominal pain secondary to ilioinguinal and iliohypogastric neuralgia. In carefully selected patients, as part of a multimodal regimen, pulsed radiofrequency can aid recovery by providing effective and long-lasting pain relief, thus allowing time for effective rehabilitation.Copyright © 2021 International Anesthesia Research Society.
