Eagle Syndrome Surgical Treatment With Piezosurgery

Abstract: The transcervical surgical approach in patients with ES seems to be safe and effective, despite the remarkable risk for transient marginal mandibular nerve palsy. This risk can be decreased by the use of the piezoelectric device for its distinctive characteristics--such as precision, selective cut action, and bloodless cut.

“…The device cuts mineralized tissue precisely and smoothly, but it does not injure soft tissues, in particular, nerves, muscles, or vessels [Table 1]. [4567] The mental nerve was identified, and the inferior alveolar nerve was freely separated from the surrounding mandibular bone between the mental foramen and the lesion using the piezosurgery system. Fortunately, the lesion could be removed surgically without significant bleeding, and the nerve could be conserved.…”

“…Although conservative management with analgesics, anticonvulsants, antidepressants have been tried, surgical treatment is the only effective treatment. [125][126][127] Specifically, transoral and transcervical approach for resection of the elongated styloid process have been reported. 125,126 Use of a piezoelectric cutting device to reduce the risk of transient marginal mandibular nerve injury with the transcervical approach has also been suggested.…”
