TY - JOUR PY - 2015// TI - Management of complications relating to complex traumatic hand injuries JO - Hand clinics A1 - Ferreira, Joel A1 - Fowler, John R. SP - 311 EP - 317 VL - 31 IS - 2 N2 - Complex hand injuries result in local trauma to osseous, neurovascular, and soft tissue structures. The large amount of energy imparted to these tissues may result in complex regional pain syndrome, stiffness, or infection. Unfortunately, a good outcome may not only depend on the technical aspects of the procedure but on the expectations, occupation, age, and other factors that are out of the surgeon's control. The best treatment for these complications is prevention; however, this review offers strategies to combat the complications once they arise.
