ECTR With Tourniquet and Local Anesthesia Only: Efficiency and Patient Satisfaction
LO-ECTR was faster than OR-ECTR for all studied time metrics. Data are suggestive of improvement in the environmental impact factor. Limitations include a lack of meaningful postoperative patient events and retrospective nature of the study. Further studies will investigate long-term outcomes in the LO-ECTR group.
