Transoral surgical resection of oropharyngeal tumors rarely results in exposure of the internal carotid artery. This exposed internal carotid artery can result in a very rare but catastrophic complication of rupture and severe bleeding. This complication is preventable by using prevertebral muscle flaps around the internal carotid artery. [13]In advanced stages, the oropharyngeal or hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas are more at risk of prevertebral muscle invasion. [14] Snags (self sustained natural apophyseal glide) provide pain relief for patients. Endurance exercises for the cervicalscapular region improve pain relief in patients in comparison with patients who did not receive treatment. Combining a cervical stretch + strengthening + stabilization in the cervical region has beneficial effects in comparison with no treatment. There was pain reduction immediately after the treatment. But not after an intermediate follow-up.

The digastric muscle is a small muscle situated below the mandible, that extends from the mastoid process of temporal bone to the chin. The muscle is composed of a posterior and an anterior belly, connected by an intermediate tendon, which represents their common insertion point.

In many cases, the human papillomavirus (HPV) is responsible for this cancer. The HPV vaccine for girls and boys can protect from contracting and spreading this virus and can greatly reduce the incidence of this cancer.

In this study cervical mobilization is an effective treatment for cervicobrachialgia. More specifically a contralateral glide technique. It increases the range of motion that is possible in the upper limbs and it decreases the pain. They compared it with ultrasound which doesn’t have any effect. The lateral glide was practised in this way:Xie L, Kang H, Xu Q, et al. Sleep drives metabolite clearance from the adult brain. Science 2013 ; 342 :373–377. The aim of this study is to characterize the morphological and histological features of NCCLs in a group of extracted teeth using a focus variation optical microscopic technique that is capable of detecting minute variation in surface topography.
