Article Abstract
Vascular injury presented immediately after the penetration, but delayed onset of vascular symptom caused by an embolism or vessel dissection after cervical fusion or traumatic event is extremely rare. We present a case of a 56-year-old woman who underwent an operation for cervical fusion for type II Odontoid process fracture. She presented symptoms of seizure with hemiparesis in 6 days after the operation. Multifocal acute infarction due to an embolism from the left VA (V3 segment) dissection was observed without a definite screw breach the transverse foramen. We hereby reported the instructive case report of delayed onset of vertebral artery dissection after posterior cervical fusion with type II odontoid process fracture patient. When a cervical operation performed in the cervical trauma patient, even if no apparent VA injury occurs before and during the operation, the surgeon must take caution not to risk cerebral infarction because of the delayed VA dissection.

Myoepithelial carcinoma (MECA) is a malignant neoplasm composed exclusively of myoepithelial cells and accounts for less than 1% of all salivary gland tumors. Its diagnosis is often challenging due to histologic overlaps with benign lesions and its variable morphologic presentation. Although molecular profiling has emerged as a valuable tool in salivary gland tumor classification, the genetic landscape of MECA remains incompletely defined.

Background: Cervical cancer (CC) is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, emphasizing the need for accurate and efficient diagnostic tools. Traditional methods of cervical cell classification are time-consuming and susceptible to human error, highlighting the need for automated solutions.
Materials And Methods: This study introduces the modified hierarchical deep feature fusion (HDFF) method for cervical cell classification using the SIPaKMeD and Herlev datasets.

Background: The reliance on patient reported outcomes (PROs) has substantially increased not only to augment current metrics of clinical success, but to capture the patient's perspective on the benefit of their treatment. As more PROs become utilized, the time and cost of longitudinal data collection and survey fatigue must be tempered with the benefit of the data collected. Therefore, this study sought to assess the responsiveness of the Neck Disability Index (NDI) compared to the PROMIS-10 Global Health Survey physical function T-score (PFT) and mental health T-score (MHT).

Background Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) is a common surgical procedure that patients undergo for cervical disc herniations and degenerative disc disease, aimed at relieving radicular symptoms and restoring cervical alignment. The impact of preoperative kyphotic cervical imbalance versus preoperative lordosis on postoperative radiographic outcomes in ACDF patients is unclear. The purpose of this study is to examine how preoperative cervical sagittal balance can influence quantified postoperative cervical sagittal balance.
