Objectives/Interrogation: Simply by definition (damage to at least two functional structures within the hand) or by mechanism (avulsion, extensive damage) complex hand trauma of the hand represent challenging conditions in regard to treatment and rehabilitation. If there is also a preexistent bleeding disorder, the whole management must be reassessed.

Methods: Either drug-induced, congenital or idiopathic, there are no universal peri-operative recommendations guiding the surgical plan for patients with bledding disorders.

Results and Conclusions: Illustrated by clinical cases, the authors highlight the difficulties encountered with such patients during the treatment of complex traumatic hand injuries.
