Allograft recipients are exposed to risks owing to immunosuppression, and there is always the possibility that psychological issues interfere with the procedure's outcomes. An episode of blindness was suspected in a bilateral hand allograft recipient. The patient underwent a multidisciplinary evaluation, and clinical, electrophysiological, laboratory and a combination of functional and morphological magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) tests ruled out any visual process and revealed a secondary benefit, which turned out to be the use of privileges of the transplant support centre for several months. Composite tissue allograft recipients require a thorough psychological assessment before and after transplant procedures to prevent malingering. © 2009 British Association of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons.
