Neurapraxia: This question should be directed to your operating surgeon if symptoms emerged immediately postop. It would be helpful to know the pathology of the tumors removed...were they invasive or did they compress or damage nearby peripheral nerves?Peripheral nerves are fragile and easily damaged by traction, compression and transection. These symptoms sound like neurapraxia - damaged peripheral nerves.

Plan: You definitely need to follow up with your surgeon , who knows what tumor removed and location.
