Circulating tumor cells clusters and their role in Breast cancer metastasis; a review of literature.

Breast cancer is a significant and deadly threat to women globally. Moreover, Breast cancer metastasis is a complicated process involving multiple biological stages, which is considered a substantial cause of death, where cancer cells spread from the original tumor to other organs in the body-representing the primary mortality factor. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are cancer cells detached from the primary or metastatic tumor and enter the bloodstream, allowing them to establish new metastatic sites.

Spontaneous Vertebral Artery Dissection Is an Under-Recognized Cause of Stroke in Young Patients: Two Case Reports and Review.

Cervicocerebral artery dissection (CAD) is an important and under-recognized cause of strokes in young and middle-aged patients. Spontaneous vertebral artery dissection (VAD) is a rare condition that can potentially cause a stroke without any preceding trauma or other causes of dissection. VAD rarely simulates classical headache syndromes.
