: An emerging area of computer science is artificial intelligence (AI), which involves creating machines capable of learning, reasoning, and solving problems in the same way as humans. There is increasing use of machine learning techniques in the medical field, along with image recognition, language processing, and data mining, ranging from automated image analysis to disease prediction. Neurosurgery is frequently regarded as a pioneer in developing disruptive and innovative technologies that have significantly altered the course of acute and chronic disorders, such as epilepsy and brain tumors. Artificial intelligence platforms have been developed in recent decades to contribute to the paradigm shift in brain tumor surgery. Artificial intelligence platforms can result in safer and more effective brain tumor surgery. Artificial intelligence will soon be used to evaluate, analyze, and provide high-quality medical care. Robots will also become more prevalent in neurosurgery. Hence, physicians must keep up with this revolution to personalize patient care and deliver meaningful outcomes. For neurosurgeons to continue providing high-quality care in the future, they must understand artificial intelligence and utilize it effectively.

Introduction: During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, physicians delivered a leading part and carried a high work volume, leading to burnout, which subsequently compromised patient safety, decreased the quality of care, and increased misdiagnosis. In the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, physicians should have been vigilant and informed about the potential conditions resulting in medical errors. Particularly, epidemics of infectious illnesses can cause serious challenges in lymphoma diagnosis. Case Presentation: This case report presents a patient with lymphoma presenting with cough, fever, shortness of breath, and a history of contact with her family members who tested positive for COVID-19, which caused delayed diagnosis and treatment, disease progression, and finally, the death of the patient. In the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, the center of attention was detracted from other possible diagnoses, thereby missing lymphoma as a potentially treatable disease. Conclusions: Although physicians are required to be watchful for COVID-19 amid the pandemic, it is also necessary not to neglect other diseases. A delay in the initiation of cancer therapy, even for one month, has been reported to increase the risk of mortality by approximately 10%.

Background and Importance: Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) can compress the trachea and esophagus when located in the cervical spine. In this report, we investigated whether it is preferable to perform the early surgical intervention in symptomatic patients or to wait and administer supportive care and perform late surgical intervention regardless of whether symptoms progress or not. Case Presentation: We present the case of a 70-year-old patient with diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) causing significant dysphagia and unilateral vocal cord paresis, resulting in dyspnea and stridor. Imaging diagnostics revealed large osteophytes anterior to the cervical spine from C3 to C6 compressing the cervical spine. Significant clinical improvement was observed following the anterior resection of the patient's osteophytes. Conclusion: In order to achieve higher success and less recurrence, it is preferable to perform surgical intervention earlier in the disease's progression. However, more studies are necessary to confirm this because most of the present results are from case report articles and have less evidence.
