dc.description.abstractRetroperitoneal hematoma is a kind of life-threatening injury which commonly develops after blunt trauma in childhood. Femoral nerve paralysis that occurs after retroperitoneal hematoma is a rare complication. It occurs as the result of femoral nerve being compressed while passing through psoas muscle or due to the compression of hematoma on femoral nerve after proceeding down towards femoral canal and causing ischemic femoral nerve injury. Whether this femoral nerve paralysis is permenant or temporary seems to be related with the drainage of the hematoma. However, it differs from patient to patient related with the size of the hematoma and the degree of compression. In this study, a 13-years-old boy who developed retroperitoneal hematoma after falling down the stairs and who after wards developed femoral nerve paralysis that regressed on follow-up is reported as a rare complication.
