Postoperative femoral nerve palsy (FNP) is a rare complication associated with urologic surgery. Inappropriate use of retractors, use of lithotomy position, and prolonged surgery that lead to the femoral nerve compression have been reported as risk factors for FNP. Here, we report two cases of FNP after pelvic surgery. Case 1: A 47-year-old woman underwent ureterocystoneostomy for a giant ureterocele. On the first postoperative day, she developed muscle weakness and paresthesia in the left lower leg. An orthopedic surgeon diagnosed her with FNP associated with the surgery. Case 2: An 82-year-old woman underwent radical cystectomy for invasive bladder cancer. On the second postoperative day, she developed extension deficit in the left lower leg and was diagnosed with an iatrogenic FNP. Although this complication is infrequent, at onset, it leads to difficulty in walking and gait disturbance in the patient. As a result, it greatly reduces the patient's postoperative quality of life. Therefore, preventive measures should be taken to reduce the risk of this postsurgical nerve injury, such as appropriate placement of retractors and proper patient positioning during the operation.
