Rupture of the flexor pollicis longus in the digital canal can be repaired by one of the following methods: a) end-to-end suture, b) tendon grafting, c) transplantation of the flexor sublimis tendon of the ring finger, d) fixation of the proximal stump to the base of the second phalanx following elongation at the wrist. The efficacy of the first two methods has been confirmed by many authors on the basis of extensive clinical experience, but very few reports have been made on the other two techniques. The authors therefore report eleven cases of repair of the flexor pollicis longus by the technique of elongation at the wrist in the hope that this might be of value and might serve to reawaken interest in this method among specialists in hand surgery.
a）端端缝合；b）肌腱移植；c）环指屈指浅肌腱移位；d）在腕部延长后将近端残端固定于第二指骨基部。前两种方法的疗效已被许多作者基于广泛的临床经验所证实，但关于另外两种技术的报道却很少。因此，作者报告了11例采用腕部延长技术修复拇长屈肌腱的病例，希望这可能有价值，并可能重新唤起手外科专家对该方法的兴趣。
