Proximal focal femoral deficiency (PFFD) is a rare congenital skeletal abnormality characterised by the partial absence of the proximal femoral segment with shortening of the entire lower extremity. It typically presents as a shortened thigh, which is flexed, externally rotated and abducted. Some other skeletal anomalies, especially fibular hemimelia, usually accompany the disorder. The diagnosis of PFFD is made in early childhood and based mainly on conventional radiography. However, the radiographic appearance of the disease evolves as the child grows. In addition, treatment procedures applied to the child affect the radiographic presentation of the disease in adulthood. Almost all cases of PFFD reported to date are in young children and in the current literature, there is a paucity of radiographic images of PFFD in mature skeleton. The aim of this case report is to present the radiographic appearance of PFFD in an adult patient and to increase awareness among radiologists about this disease.

In the world auto market, top three companies are VW(Volkswagen), Runault-Nissan-Mistubishi, and Toyota. About some selected countries and areas, China, England, Italy, Australia, Germany, Turkey, Russia, Sweden, USA, Brazil, UAE, Japan, Vietnam and Thailand are more competitive. However, the situation is different. Seeing monopolistic market countries and areas, Saudi Arabia, Taiwan, Korea, Malaysia, France, India, and Pakistan, in particular, the influence of Japan to Taiwan, India, and Pakistan is very big. But in Korea and France, their own companies’ brands occupy the market. In Japan domestic market, the overall situation is competitive. Almost all vehicles made in Japan are Japanese brand. From now on, we have to note the development of electric vehicle (EV) and other new technologies such as automatic driving and connected car. That is because they will give a great impact on the auto industry and market of Japan. Now Japan’s auto industry is going to be consolidated into three groups, Honda, Toyota group, and Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi group for seeking the scale merit of economy. Therefore, I will pay attention to the worldwide development of EV and other new technologies and the reorganization of auto companies groups.

In combating the coronavirus pandemic in Germany, soft law has played an important, albeit not a central, role. Its use basically corresponds to that of under “normal circumstances”. In accordance with the German constitutional order, almost all substantial decisions are made in a legally binding form. However, these are often prepared through or supplemented by soft law. This article shows that soft law has played an important role in fighting the pandemic and its effects in Germany, although there cannot be any doubt that legally binding forms of regulation have prevailed. At the same time, the current pandemic has shed light on the advantages and effects of soft law in the context of the German legal order.

Torsion of the ovary is a rare condition whose diagnosis remains difficult given the non-specificity of the clinical picture as well as the difficulty of clinical evaluation, especially in young girls. It is a surgical emergency because it involves the vital prognosis by the hemorrhagic risk, and functional prognosis by the risk of infertility. The clinical picture is dominated by acute abdominal pain. Our work reports the case of a 2-year-old girl in whom the diagnosis of ovarian torsion was made in front of an atypical clinical picture. Laparoscopy is the method of choice for making a positive diagnosis and performing a conservative procedure as described in this work.

The first case of external supravesical hernia was made in 1804; but it is so rare that it is very difficult to find any case reported in Bangladesh. Here a case of external supravesical hernia is described in a male who was presented with a left sided direct incomplete reducible inguinal hernia. This report aims to review and discuss the surgical anatomy of these rare supravesical hernias and calls attention to the confusing presentation and treatment of this conditionJ Shaheed Suhrawardy Med Coll, 2015; 7(1):40-41

Introduction: Odontomas are tumors of odontogenic origin. They represent on average 70% of all odontogenic tumors found. Early diagnosis and treatment prevent the loss of tissue element, tooth impaction, bone malformations, and displacement of bone structures, differentiating their types through panoramic radiographic images. Objective: To carry out a concise systematic review of the characteristics of odontomas, differentiating their types through panoramic radiographic images. Methods: The research was carried out from May 2021 to June 2021 and developed based on Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, Scielo, and Google Scholar, following the Systematic Review-PRISMA rules. The quality of the studies was based on the GRADE instrument and the risk of bias was analyzed according to the Cochrane instrument. Results: A total of 84 articles were found. A total of 36 articles were evaluated in full and 17 were included and evaluated in the present study. A total of 3 Studies with a High Risk of Bias and 1 Study with Uncertain Risk. Radiographic examination is extremely important for the study and diagnosis of odontomas. Odontomas present a characteristic radiographic appearance. In complex odontomas, radiopacity is not specifically determined, showing itself as an irregular and disorganized mass surrounded by a narrow radiolucent zone. In the composite type, the radiographic image is pathognomonic. In the radiopaque image, dozens of denticles simulate small teeth surrounded by a thin radiolucent area. Composite odontoma, on the other hand, consists of the same calcified structures arranged in an orderly and related manner, similar to normal teeth contained in a fibrous capsule. The differential diagnosis of complex odontoma includes osteomas and condensing osteitis. Conclusion: Radiographic and/or tomographic examination is the best way to obtain an accurate diagnosis, precisely delimiting the lesion and nearby and involved structures.

Purpose of the study: This research was compiled to analyze the improvement of the quality of education in Indonesia. The purpose of program evaluation is to know for sure whether the achievement of the results, progress, and obstacles encountered in the implementation of the program. Recognizing the low competency of school principals of the principal's partnership programs. Methodology: The type of this research is development, research which aims to produce instruments to evaluate a school principal partnership program. The development design in this study using the Plomp model. The data was analyzed qualitatively as input for improvement of activities in 2018. The following data was collected using questionnaires, interviews, and observations. Main Findings: The data and analysis show that the partnership program has recorded various advances made in the impact schools — both those related to curriculum management and implementation of supervision of learning and strengthening of school ecosystems. The effectiveness of school programs is very dependent on the carrying capacity of each school. However, it is the real result of this program is the change in mindset not only for principals but for almost all stakeholders. Applications of this study: This Study is analyzed based on the school principal partnership program report to become recommendation and references for another partnership programs, improving the competency of school principals, and developing remote area (3T regions/frontier, outermost, and disadvantaged in Indonesia national scale) of Indonesia. Novelty/Originality of this study: The findings imply that the partnership program has a significant impact on the equity growth in remote areas.

Well known risk factors for thromboembolic events include immobility, malignancy, pregnancy, surgery, and acquired or inherited thrombophilias, obesity, cigarette smoking, and hypertension. We present a case of a 59-year-old female who watched TV and developed leg swelling and was found to have PE and DVT.

Solitary Fibrous Tumor (SFT) of prostate is an unusual mesenchymal neoplasm. We report SFT in a 62 year-old man which was clinically misdiagnosed as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The specimen of surgically resected two prostate mass, we received were solid grey-white nodular on cut surface. Based on histopathological ndings and IHC assessment, a diagnosis of SFT was made. In addition, we review the literature and discuss the challenging issues of misdiagnosis. The case is presented in view of its rarity.
