Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Aim of this study is to present the use of WALANT in operations performed on the upper and lower limbs, evaluate its efficacy in terms of feasibility, total operation time, total operating room time, bleeding, patient discomfort and satisfaction and control for potential drawbacks. The hypothesis is that WALANT is a viable option in common operations performed by plastic surgeons on the upper and lower limbs.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Aim of this study is to present the use of WALANT in operations performed on the upper and lower limbs, evaluate its efficacy in terms of feasibility, total operation time, total operating room time, bleeding, patient discomfort and satisfaction and control for potential drawbacks. The hypothesis is that WALANT is a viable option in common operations performed by plastic surgeons on the upper and lower limbs.
A prospective study will be conducted comparing the use of WALANT in operations performed on the upper and lower limbs to the traditional use of tourniquet with general or regional anesthesia.
