When this surgery fails, the extensor retinaculum tissue does not regenerate with sufficient structural strength to be used again. Previously, a different approach has then been needed for revision surgery, often using more complex surgical techniques with a substantially greater impact on recovery. We describe a highly reliable yet simple method of using local soft tissue to adequately restabilize the subluxing ECU tendon in cases where an extensor retinacular flap has already been used. We report the results of this technique in 4 patients, all of whom returned to jobs\/hobbies where ECU instability was a considerable functional risk.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1097\/bth.0000000000000467","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,13]],"date-time":"2023-12-13T10:09:17Z","timestamp":1702462157000},"page":"67-73","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Revision of Failed Nonanatomic Extensor Retinacular Stabilization of the Unstable ECU Tendon: Surgical Technique and Case Series"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"28","author":[{"given":"Stuart W.","family":"Jones","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Trauma & Orthopaedic Surgery, Airedale NHS Foundation Trust, Keighley"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fiona C.","family":"Campbell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Acute and General Medicine, Harrogate NHS Foundation Trust, Harrogate"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Douglas A.","family":"Campbell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Spire Leeds Hospital, Jackson Avenue, Leeds, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"R1-20250512","first-page":"e2489","article-title":"Tennis players and water polo athletes now have something in common to talk about: MRI findings of extensor carpi ulnaris chronic subsheath injury","volume":"10","author":"Gupta","year":"2018","journal-title":"Cureus"},{"key":"R2-20250512","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"172","DOI":"10.1136\/bjsm.32.2.172","article-title":"Recurrent dislocation of the extensor carpi ulnaris tendon","volume":"32","author":"Inoue","year":"1998","journal-title":"Br J Sports Med"},{"key":"R3-20250512","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"133","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jhsg.2022.11.003","article-title":"Radially based extensor retinacular sling reconstruction for extensor carpi ulnaris subsheath injuries","volume":"5L","author":"Mastroianni","year":"2023","journal-title":"J Hand Surg Global Online"},{"key":"R4-20250512","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"487","DOI":"10.1016\/j.hcl.2021.06.005","article-title":"Extensor carpi ulnaris subluxation","volume":"37","author":"Byrd","year":"2021","journal-title":"Hand Clin"},{"key":"R5-20250512","first-page":"124","article-title":"Extensor carpi ulnaris.
