The variability in the formation of Ilioinguinal nerve has been documented in the literature especially related to iliohypogastric nerve. But so far very few cadaveric studies have been documented on variation in the branches of ilioinguinal nerve. A case presented which demonstrates aberrancy of its anatomic position. Although the course of ilioinguinal nerve has been well known, nostudies or report have demonstrated a course in relation to lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. This case report serves as a warning to the surgeon to be aware of such bizarre presentation since the consequences of iatrogenic injury to such structures may be serious.
