Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Femoral nerve injury is not a common complication of the abdominopelvic surgical procedures.
OBJECTIVE: To present a case of femoral neuropathy after nephrectomy.
METHODS: Case report.
RESULTS: A 71-year-old female patient with a right-sided congenital hip dysplasia developed numbness, tingling and burning pain in the right thigh and muscle weakness in the right hip after the nephrectomy surgery. Neurological examination and electrodiagnostic test revealed a femoral nerve injury. Prognosis of the femoral neuropathy was good. The quadriceps muscle weakness improved within six months.
CONCLUSION: Postoperative femoral neuropathy is an unexpected complication after total nephrectomy surgery. The prognosis is relatively good and early physical therapy can produce rapid recovery.
