This is a case of a 75-year-old woman who presented with severe headache, left eye ptosis, and binocular diplopia and was found to have multiple cranial neuropathies on examination. This case reviews the localization and workup of multiple cranial neuropathies and emphasizes the importance of not prematurely narrowing the differential diagnosis.

Background: Ejection seats are designed to be a lifesaving device for aircrew in emergencies. Modern ejection seats are widely prevalent in fighter and bomber aircraft and are occasionally associated with acceleration injury from axial loading (Gz) during the catapult phase of ejection, limb flail injury due to windblast, or parachute landing fall, especially if the ejection is outside of the seat's performance envelope.
Case Report: We present the first known case in the medical literature of a military pilot who survived a low-altitude, high-angulation (>90° of bank angle) ejection where the pilot's ejection seat parachute did not deploy due to contact with the ground before completion of the ejection sequence.

granulomatous amebic encephalitis is a rare disease that is associated with a high rate of mortality. Delays in diagnosis and treatment are common because of limited information on the organism in addition to its nonspecific clinical presentation. Prior reports have demonstrated that the encephalitis presents as multifocal lesions throughout the central nervous system with enhancement and edema.

Background: Medical image segmentation is crucial for clinical diagnostics and treatment planning. Recently, hybrid models often neglect the local modeling capabilities of Transformers for medical image segmentation, despite the complementary nature of local information from both convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and transformers. This limitation is particularly problematic in multi-organ segmentation, where organs are closely adhered, and accurate delineation is essential.

Objective: Analyzing population trends of bone shape variation can provide valuable insights into growth processes. This review aims to overview state-of-the-art spatiotemporal statistical shape modeling techniques, emphasizing their application to 3D skeletal structures during healthy growth.
Methods: We searched PubMed and Scopus for articles on statistical shape modeling using a pediatric spatiotemporal dataset of 3D healthy bone models.

Background: Supernumerary teeth, defined as extra teeth beyond the normal series of dentition, can appear anywhere in the dental arch. They may present as solitary or multiple, unilateral or bilateral, and can be either erupted or impacted. Rarely, supernumerary teeth are found in ectopic locations outside the dental arches, such as the nasal cavity, inferior nasal conchae, maxillary sinus, ethmoid sinus, or skull.
