Eccrine Poroma is a rare benign adnexal tumor. It presents the problem of differential diagnosis with several entities. Dermoscopic features are suggestive and may guide diagnosis. We report new observation. A 44-year-old woman, presented an asymptomatic lesion on dorsal side left foot for 2 years. Clinically nodule was brownish, well delimited superficial erosions, firm palpation. Dermoscopy s...

Foot rot disease (Phytophthora capsici) causes severe economic losses to cultivators of black pepper. Fungicides used for managing the adversely affect export potential product due their residual toxicity. Endospore-forming bacterial strains, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens VLY24, pumilus VLY17, and velezensis PCSE10 were evaluated growth promotion suppression in pepper nursery at two locations Kera...

Skeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma is an extraordinarily rare neoplasm with a distinct histological morphology. Although it grows slowly, the clinical course was found to be worse than usual chondrosarcoma. We report a case of a skeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma in the calcaneus of a 21-year-old female who presented to us with a feature of gradually increasing benign swelling left foot for last two ye...

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is described as a growth disorder characterized by the progressive replacement of normal bone elements fibrous-osseus tissue. Bones affected FD presented with weakening and prone to pathological fracture. We reported case in an 8-years-old boy, who came hospital pain upper right thigh after falling bumps his head foot. An X-ray revealed deformity diasteal scalloping radio...

Penetrating wounds of the foot are not uncommon. Many are caused by thorns or by fragments of wood that are retained in the foot, creating a foreign-body granuloma. The differential diagnosis for bony reaction to an unrecognised organic foreign body includes osteoid osteoma, chronic and acute osteomyelitis, tuberculosis granuloma, bone cyst, aneurysmal bone cyst, cortical fibrous defect, and ne...

Weakness of the dorsiflexor muscles of the foot is a relatively common presentation. In most cases, the etiology involves a peripheral injury to the common peroneal nerve. These patients usually present with lower motor neuron findings on evaluation. In contrast, if upper motor neuron findings were present a central lesion should be suspected and appropriate imaging studies are performed. We de...

We present a rare case of traumatic lesion the tibial fibers sciatic nerve with spared peroneal fibers. A 33-year-old victim three month earlier stabbing attack came to our attention gait impairment and weakened left foot plantar flexion internal rotation supination. Based upon clinical signs neurophysiological investigations we suspected that injury had occurred. Ultrasound examination detecte...

In the foot and ankle region, benign neoplasms and pseudotumoural soft tissue lesions are significantly more frequent than malignant tumours. The pseudotumoural lesions constitute a heterogeneous group, with highly varied aetiology and histopathology. This article reviews the imaging features of the most common pseudotumours of the soft tissues in the foot and ankle. Although the imaging charac...
