There are a lot of\n                    suspected mechanisms, including mechanical friction, vascular impairment, injury\n                    associated with reduction, and local adhesion. However, there have been limited\n                    reports about a closed rupture of the EPL tendon associated with a relatively\n                    large, displaced dorsal \u201cbeak\u201d fracture fragment. We report about the management\n                    outcomes and clinical significance of closed ruptures of the EPL tendon caused\n                    by a displaced dorsal fracture fragment of beak-like appearance in DRF.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Patients\/Material and Methods Our study included 7 cases of a complete\n                    closed rupture of the EPL tendon after open reduction internal fixation. All\n                    cases showed a similar pattern involving a relatively large dorsal beak fragment\n                    originating from Lister\u2019s tubercle, and we treated them with a palmar locking\n                    plate within 7 days from the initial fracture without separate dorsal fragment\n                    management. All patients were diagnosed with a delayed EPL tendon rupture.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results The study included 5 female and 2 male patients. Mean patient age\n                    was 59 years. In all cases we explored the extensor compartment III to verify\n                    the exact cause of the EPL rupture. Six patients underwent an extensor indicis\n                    transfer and one patient underwent tendon grafting.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Mean fragment width and length were 7.0 mm and 13.3 mm, respectively. The\n                    fragments were dorsally elevated (mean, 2.4 mm) and distally displaced (mean,\n                    3.5 mm). At the last follow-up, the mean DASH score was 4.4. Mean thumb MP joint\n                    flexion and extension were 4 degrees and 62 degrees, respectively.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusion We support the possibility of EPL tendon rupture caused by\n                    displaced sharp Lister\u2019s tubercle fracture fragments.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/a-0826-4731","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,8]],"date-time":"2019-05-08T22:46:21Z","timestamp":1557355581000},"page":"199-204","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Extensor pollicis longus tendon rupture caused by a\n                    displaced dorsal \u201cbeak\u201d fragment of Lister\u2019s tubercle in distal radius\n                    fractures"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"51","author":[{"given":"Jun-Ku","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inje University Seoul Paik Hospital, Department of Orthopaedic\n                    Surgery"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jin-Young","family":"Bang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inje University Haeundae Paik Hospital, Department of Orthopaedic\n                    Surgery"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yun Seong","family":"Choi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CHA Bundang Medical Center, Department of Orthopaedic\n                    Surgery"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tae-Ho","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CHA Bundang Medical Center, Department of Orthopaedic\n                    Surgery"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Woo-Jin","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inje University Seoul Paik Hospital, Department of Orthopaedic\n                    Surgery"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Soo-Hong","family":"Han","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CHA Bundang Medical Center, Department of Orthopaedic\n                    Surgery"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,8]]},"container-title":["Handchirurgie \u00b7 Mikrochirurgie \u00b7 Plastische Chirurgie"],"original-title":[],"language":"de","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/a-0826-4731.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,5]],"date-time":"2019-06-05T22:36:21Z","timestamp":1559774181000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/a-0826-4731"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,8]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"03","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,6,5]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,6]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/a-0826-4731","relation":{},"ISSN":["0722-1819","1439-3980"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0722-1819","type":"print"},{"value":"1439-3980","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,8]]}}}
