    Abstract Plexiform schwannoma is a rare tumor in the lower extremity which grows slowly and is noninvasive. The tumor size is usually less than 2 cm. The main affected population of this disease is concentrated on the age group of 20 to 50 years old. In this study, we reported a rare case of 66-year-old male with a large soft tissue mass on his right foot with a tumor size larger than 7 cm. The ultrasound was performed and showed circumscribed hypoechoic image, indicating a suspected diagnosis of lipoma. The subsequent MRI showed a multilobulated heterogenous signal on T2WI and STIR sequence with mild enhancement, suggesting hemangiomas. Then the tumor of the patient was removed for pathological examination and the results confirmed the diagnosis of plexiform schwannoma. Patient recovered well and had no recurrence in 9 months after the surgery. CT, MRI, and ultrasound are useful to distinguish these rare tumors from other soft tissue lesions, in contrast, MRI has higher sensitivity and provides more accurate diagnostic information. This case report provides a deep understanding of plexiform schwannoma. In the diagnosis of large soft tissue tumors in the lower extremity of the elderly, attention should be paid to the differential diagnosis of plexiform schwannoma to improve the diagnosis level.

    Abstract Purpose: Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) was firstly reported in December 2019 in Wuhan, China and soon after, the number of cases increased rapidly worldwide. As of May 2, 2020, more than 3,000,000 confirmed cases have been reported world. In Macao, there were 45 confirmed COVID-19 cases until May 2, 2020.
    Material and methods: In this study, we summarized the radiological features of these cases and analyzed relationship between the clinical characteristics and radiological findings. We retrospectively analyzed the imaging manifestations of the 45 cases with COVID-19 in Macao, focusing on identifying and characterizing the most common radiological findings of COVID-19. We retrospectively analyze the relationship between the clinical features and radiological finding of COVID-19 pneumonia.
    Results: This study showed that chest CT manifestations of COVID-19 were multiple ground-glass densities in both lungs. It is dominated by bilateral peripheral subpleural distribution, which may be accompanied by consolidation, interlobular septa thickening, and adjacent pleura thickening. As the disease progresses, it can manifest as consolidation of the lungs in CT scan. We also found the age, smoking and hypertension may be risk factor for predicting the severity of COVID-19 in radiology.
    Conclusion: COVID-19 should be diagnosed based on the clinical feature, nCoV PCR test and radiological manifestation. The main manifestation of COVID-19 is peripheral ground glass opacity. Age, smoking and hypertension may be used to predict the severity of COVID-19. Chest CT is the important radiological method for screening and detecting COVID-19 patients.

    Abstract Aim: The study aimed to describe the finger dexterity in office workers of an Asian population.
    Methods: One hundred twenty-seven right-handed office workers, aged 21-50 with a similar split of male and female, were recruited with finger dexterity measured by the O'Connor Finger Dexterity Test. The grip strength, tip and lateral pinch strength of both hands were also measured.
    Results: This study provided the percentile score of the O'Connor Finger Dexterity Test of both males and females in the Asian population. Raw scores of below 218 and 213 seconds in male and female participants respectively reach the 90th percentile, and above 237 and 235 seconds in male and female below the 10th percentile. Results showed no significant difference in local mean scores across different age groups, between male and female and with varying hours of working in typing, filing, and writing. A significant difference was only found in finger dexterity and years of working as office workers. No significant correlation was found between the finger dexterity with grip strength, tip and lateral pinch of the dominant right hand. The results were similar to the original normative score with similar work skills and demands.
    Conclusion: The mean scores could be used as a valid reference for local occupational therapists to evaluate the finger dexterity of office workers. However, caution has to be taken that conclusions drawn can be biased because of the relatively small sample size, and the results cannot be generalized to represent a wider Asian population.
