[Ambulatory surgery in traumatic orthopedics].
The use of ambulatory surgery for orthopedic injuries over a 6-year period is reported. The hand was involved in 54% of cases but it is logical to extend these techniques to cover other fields, as shown by this report. The various local and regional types of anesthesia are discussed and emphasis placed on important pre-and post-operative modalities. No major anesthetic or surgical complication was observed. The method possesses advantages with respect to Health Care costs but inconveniences within the overall budget framework.
