title: [Long-term results following reconstruction of the tendon of the extensor pollicis longus muscle by transposition of the tendon of the extensor indicis muscle].
abstract: Twenty-six patients with injury of the tendon of the extensor pollicis longus have been studied and the long term results of the transfer of the tendon of the extensor indicis are reported. Using Geldmacher's evaluation scheme for assessment of the results of extensor tendon reconstruction we found thirteen excellent, ten good, and three fair results. The prognosis is dependent upon the kind of injury and the time after injury of the transfer of the tendon of the extensor indicis.
