The patient was placed in the supine position on the operating table and all pressure points were padded. A tourniquet was placed on the thigh over a soft roll. Intravenous antibiotics were administered. The left/right lower extremity was prepped and draped in the standard sterile fashion. The extremity was exsanguinated and the tourniquet was inflated to 300 mmHg.
