It has allowed surgeons to perform more procedures with a remarkable time grain and to reduce the cost. The objective of our study is to evaluate the interest of this technique in the management of upper limb trauma in the emergency room. Results: The study included 36 patients, 14 fractures and 22 wounds. The average waiting time in the emergency room was 82.9 minutes, the average time between anesthesia and incision was 37 minutes, and the average duration of the procedure was 37 minutes. Three patients whose procedure was prolonged required additional anesthetic, and no patient required sedation or general anesthesia. None of the patients required the use of a tourniquet. No complications were reported in these patients. 92% of patients were satisfied. Discussion: WALANT makes it possible to perform surgical procedures using only lidocaine and adrenaline in combination wi...
