“…The past literature has shown good functional outcomes using a free tendon graft to repair a chronic EPL tendon rupture, 4,16,17 Also, a creative method of making a lengthening flap using the EPL tendon stump for direct repair, which did not need a free tendon graft, and with good results, has been described. 3 Pillukat et al compared the surgical outcome of EIP tendon transfer and free interpositional tendon graft for the treatment of chronic EPL tendon rupture and reported comparable and satisfactory results for both groups. 7 Chung et al also compared tendon transfer and tendon grafting in rheumatoid arthritic patients with extensor tendon ruptures and reported equally satisfying results for both methods.…”

“…The main etiologies for EPL tendon rupture include mechanical irritation, attrition, and compromised vascular supply secondary to hemorrhage and pressure, 1,2 which are often caused by distal radius fracture, rheumatoid arthritis, synovitis, bony deformity, and certain occupational overuse. 3 The chronic nature of most EPL tendon ruptures makes it more challenging to treat due to tendon retraction and gap formation.…”

“…4,[6][7][8][9]22 Una desventaja podría ser la perdida funcional residual para la extensión del segundo dedo en contraposición con trabajos que apoyan la interposición tendinosa, con el EIP como recurso, ya que sostienen que se manipularía exclusivamente el tendón dañado; como desventaja la necesidad de realizar dos anastomosis con aumento de riesgo de fracaso técnico en uno de los extremos. 10,23 Algunos autores abogan por otras técnicas, Lobo y col. 24 propone un colgajo local de alargamiento de ambos cabos tendinosos para salvar la solución de continuidad. El ECRL 11 y el APL 10 también se proponen como alternativas.…”
