RESUMEN
Debido a la rica anatomía de la mano, existen lesiones que pueden fácilmente ser pasadas por alto en una primera instancia y posteriormente pueden convertirse en deformaciones y/o alteraciones funcionales significativas de manejo mucho más complejo. A un paciente con trauma de mano se le debe realizar un examen físico completo, evaluando los sistemas vascular, nervioso, músculo-tendinoso y osteoarticular para llegar a un diagnostico acertado e iniciar un manejo temprano y adecuado.
