Two cases of postoperative femoral neuropathy have been encountered in 135 renal transplant patients operated upon at Groote Schuur Hospital since 1967. It is thought that the lesions were due to anoxia secondary to compression of the nerve by a self-retaining retractor blade. Electromyographic studies were useful in assessing the severity and prognosis of the lesion. A prolonged convalescence may occur with a varying degree of residual neurological deficit.
自1967年以来，在格罗特·舒尔医院接受手术的135例肾移植患者中，出现了2例术后股神经病变的病例。据认为，这些病变是由于自持式牵开器叶片压迫神经继发缺氧所致。肌电图检查有助于评估病变的严重程度和预后。恢复过程可能会延长，伴有不同程度的残留神经功能缺损。
