We investigate the evolutionary history of the wide-ranging Nearctic treefrog Hyla arenicolor through the integration of extensive range-wide sampling, phylogenetic analyses of multilocus genetic data, and divergence dating. Previous phylogeographic studies of this frog documented a potential signature of introgressive hybridization from an ecologically and morphologically divergent sister spec...

PURPOSE To evaluate the morphological deformity of talus in congenital clubfoot by three-dimensional MRI. MATERIAL AND METHOD Subjects were five patients (two male, three female, mean age 5 months) with unilateral congenital clubfoot. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed of both feet using 1.5 T magnet. Based on the resulting magnetic resonance imaging volume data, a three-dimensional sur...

IntroductIon Fractures of the talus are rare injuries that comprise <1% of all fractures.[1,2] Talar neck fractures are the most common in occurrence with talar body fractures occurring less frequently, comprising approximately 40% of all talar injuries.[2] The literature reports a high incidence of sequelae associated with talus fractures with arthrosis, osteonecrosis, and malunion being the m...

OBJECTIVE To present our experiences of treating talar malunions and nonunions. METHOD Between January 2000 and September 2009, 26 patients with malunions or nonunions after talar fractures underwent surgical treatment according to different types of talar deformities. The treatment outcomes were evaluated using AOFAS ankle-hindfoot scale as well as plain radiographs. RESULTS 20 patients we...

The complaints were worse with prolonged physical activity, particularly after running and jumping. There was no history of antec...

Total talar extrusion without a soft tissue attachment is an extremely rare injury and is rarely reported. Appropriate treatment remains controversial. We describe the long-term outcomes of two patients who had complete talar extrusion without remaining soft tissue attachment treated with arthrodesis. Both of our patients had complications such as infection and progressive osteolysis. We sugges...

Fractures of talar body are rare and serious injuries and frequently seen in multiply injured and polytraumatised patients. The high variability of talar fractures, their relatively low incidence together with the high percentage of concomitant injuries makes treatment of these injuries a challenge to the surgeon.We treated three patients with talus body fracture and multiple articular fracture...
