Perioperative transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) was introduced from cardiology into cardiac anaesthesia in the 1980s. Initially TOE was used mainly as a monitor of left ventricular ischaemia, but now provides real-time dynamic information about the anatomy and physiology of the whole heart. TOE is of value in the management of patients undergoing procedures including cardiac valvular repa...

[Purpose] This study assessed the relationships between peak toe flexor muscle strength, ankle dorsiflexion range of motion, and countermovement jump height.

Various types of tumor can occur in the subungual space, including glomus tumors, subungual exostosis, hemangioma, epidermal cysts, and malignant tumors. While fibromatosis can occur at various sites throughout the body, it is very rarely seen in the toe. Here, we are the first to report a case of superficial fibromatosis mimicking a glomus tumor in the subungual space of the second toe. The pr...
