Lengthened or extended (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

protracted

I believe this is a double definition.

'lengthened' is the first definition.
(protracting is a kind of lengthening)

'extended' is the second definition.
('protract' can be a synonym of 'extend')

(Other definitions for protracted that I've seen before include "Lengthy" , "Dragged out" , "Drawn-out" , "Lengthened out" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
