We describe a new species of dicroglossid frog of the Fejervarya limnocharis complex from western Honshu, Japan Mainland. The new species, Fejervarya kawamurai, is genetically closer to F. sakishimensis than to F. limnocharis. It differs from F. sakishimensis by smaller tympanum, head, forelimb, hindlimb, foot, and tibia lengths, all relative to snout-vent length, and from F. multistriata by re...

Thirty-six year old male patient with pathological fracture of the left tibia underwent intramedullary and soft tissue curettage. The histopathological examination revealed diffuse large B cell lymphoma. The patient underwent F18-FDG PET-CT scanning for initial staging. FDG PET-CT scan revealed hypermetabolic lesions at the left tibia and in bilateral kidneys. After the systemic chemotherapy an...

Fractures of the lower leg or the tibia itself, accompanied by fractures of the radius at typical sites are the most common type of fractures [1]. They occur at any age, more frequently in young people. Fractures that are considered tibial diaphyseal fractures are those that occur between the knee and ankle joint. We distinguish fractures of the upper, medial and lower thirds of the tibia [2]. ...

lhead of the tibia the horizontally shaded portion represents the extent to whiclh the upper and posterior portion of the head of the tibia is covered. The dotted line running from the top of the capsule from before backwards (throuah the vertically slhaded portion) shows the extent to wlicih the outer side of the shaft is overlapped. Fig. 3 is from a skiagram taken with the knee in semiflexion...

Stress fractures of the proximal tibia metaphysis are rare in the elderly. We present a case of a 65-year old male who developed sequential proximal tibia stress fractures associated with prolonged usage of methotrexate and prednisolone within a span of 18 months. Magnetic Resonance Imaging revealed an incomplete stress fracture involving the medial proximal tibial region. The patient was treat...
