• | TKA and TKA is often associated with postoperative pain affecting recovery and rehabilitation. |
• | Avoiding the use of tourniquet may improve postoperative recovery after total knee arthroplasty. |
• | Bleeding is an important consideration after TKA and THA since there are concerns about the side effects and social costs of transfusions. |
• | The efficient management of pain and bleeding is of paramount importance. |
• | Tumescent and walant anaesthesia have been described to reduce bleeding during surgery. |
• | PVI technique provides a satisfactory bloodless surgical field and comparable postoperative analgesia to LIA in TKA and THA. |
