Core Tip	In this case history we report on a patient with a severe isolated sciatic neuropathy with a foot drop, a complication of prolonged sitting in a modified lotus position. Although rare, similar reports of sciatic nerve injury due to external compression as a result of pro-longed or repeated sitting in the same position have been reported. A so-called “lotus neuropathy” should be included in the differential diagnosis in patients presenting with a isolated sciatic neuropathy.
