Abstract

An effective technique for correcting ulnar subluxation of the extensor communis tendon off the head of the metacarpal has been described. A pedicle of the involved tendon with a distal base is developed on its radial side. This is anchored to the radial collateral ligament without compromising extensor tendon function.
