ABSTRACT
Neuropathies are complications of cardiac surgery. The reported frequency of nerve injuries varies from 1. 5% to 2. 4% for the brachial plexus and 10% to 60% for the phrenic nerve. But the recurrent laryngea! nerve,lower limb (saphenous) nerves, and the sympathetic chain are less frequently injured. The reasons of neuropathy are mainly positioning and topical hypothermia for myocardial protection. The overall prognosis of neuropathies after cardiac surgery is good, and they need no special treatment. However, prolonged recovery of phrenic neuropathy did occurr.
