Popis: Paralysis of the femoral nerve following vaginal hysterectomy is a rare peripheral lesion the pathogenesis of which is still under dispute. However, after abdominal hysterectomy it is much more frequent, with a largely clarified aetiology. During 1975 to 1984 three clinically and electrodiagnostically established cases of paralysis of the n. femoralis following vaginal hysterectomy were seen; in one case, paralysis was bilateral. The question whether lesion of the n. femoralis is due to malpractice is still a moot point.
