PURPOSE: The ischial tuberosity, referred to as the "sit bone" by @entity1 with @entity158 , is surrounded by critical nerves. This research relates, for the first time, the involvement of the posterior femoral cutaneous nerve (PFCN), including its perineal and @entity75 to the symptom of "sitting @entity158 ." An experience with PFCN resection for treatment of @entity158 with sitting is reported. @entity1 AND METHODS: The computer records were searched from 2010 through August of 2013, identifying 17 @entity1 who had surgery on PFCN. Fifteen of these 17 were @entity1 . Mean age of 17 @entity1 was 54.6 years (range 30-74 years). Each @entity1 had @entity158 with sitting, and spent much of the day standing or lying down. Each had symptoms involving posterior thigh and buttock. Three @entity1 had bilateral problems. Each of 17 @entity1 in this series had resection of PFCN through an incision in the gluteal crease. Resection included @entity75 and perineal branch. RESULTS: Of 17 @entity1 , at a mean of 19.4 months (range 6 to 42 months) after surgery, the visual analog scale improved from a mean of 9.2 to a mean of 2.1 (P   <   0.0001). There were 7 excellent, 6 good, 3 fair, and 1 poor result, for 76% good to excellent result in terms of @entity158 relief and improvement in being able to sit. CONCLUSION: @entity158 with sitting can be due to @entity2096 , a previously unreported etiology. Good to excellent results can be expected in 76% of carefully selected @entity1 .
