Abstract
The coupling-constant metamorphosis is applied to modified extended Hamiltonians and sufficient conditions are found in order that the transformed high-degree first integral of the transformed Hamiltonian is determined by the same algorithm which computes the corresponding first integral of the original extended Hamiltonian. As examples, we consider the Post-Winternitz system and the 2D caged anisotropic oscillator.

Key words: superintegrable systems; extended systems; coupling-constant metamorphosis.
