Femoral Neuropathy After Renal Transplantation

Journal of Urology, 1985
We report 2 cases of cadaveric renal transplantation in which the grafts were placed in the right iliac fossa. Postoperatively, both patients complained of ipsilateral thigh weakness. Electromyography and nerve conduction studies indicated femoral nerve neuropathy. Muscle weakness gradually resolved.

Femoral Compression Neuropathy in Hemorrhagic Disorders

Archives of Surgery, 1969
Femoral neuropathy is an uncommon complication of hemorrhagic disorders. Little direct evidence exists concerning the responsible pathomechanics for it.1-9The two mechanisms of injury which have been postulated are hemorrhage into the nerve,3,5,7,10and compression by hemorrhage within the iliopsoas muscle.2-4,8The latter mechanism is based on ...

Femoral neuropathy from inadvertent suturing of the femoral nerve

Neurology, 1996
Femoral neuropathy (FN) is a well-described complication of abdominal hysterectomy done through a Pfannenstiel incision. [1-5] Compression of the femoral nerve by a self-retaining retractor is thought to be causative, so careful positioning and padding of the retractor is advocated for prevention.

Postoperative femoral neuropathy.

Surgery, gynecology & obstetrics, 1992
Postoperative femoral neuropathy is more common than it is generally appreciated. It can occur by a number of different mechanisms after a wide variety of operations as a result of either direct or indirect injury. Most instances occur after abdominopelvic operations and are associated with the placement of self-retaining retractors.

Postpartum femoral neuropathy.

The Journal of reproductive medicine, 1982
Two cases of postpartum femoral neuropathy occurred. The literature on this subject is reviewed, and possible etiologic mechanisms are discussed. Complete functional recovery is typical of the excellent prognosis of puerperal femoral neuropathy. The importance of recognizing this complication is to predict a favorable prognosis and thus eliminate ...
