We advocate for the suspicion of tendon rupture in the first dorsal compartment with fractures of the radial styloid and both-bone forearm. Tubularization and transfer of the abductor pollicis longus and extensor pollicis brevis tendons to the brachioradialis muscle may be of benefit in these patients.
