Alongamento do processo estilóide (síndrome de Eagle): relato de dois casos

Abstract: O alongamento do processo estilóide, ou síndrome de Eagle, representa uma afecção multifatorial com características inespecíficas na análise do quadro clínico e no estudo por imagem. A utilização dos métodos de imagem, em associação aos sinais e sintomas, é de grande utilidade na confirmação diagnóstica, mostrando a extensão do complexo estilóide, os músculos e ligamentos que o compõem e as estruturas adjacentes. O diagnóstico é firmado quando se tem a associação das informações clínicas com os exames de image… Show more

“…In agreement with several authors (1,5,24) , it is believed that, in cases of orofacial pains, there is a necessity of interdisciplinary intervention and cooperation of radiologists, otorhinolaryngologists, surgeondentists, neurologists, orthopedists, ophthalmologists, phonoaudiologists, physiotherapist and psychologists (16) , each professional acting in his/her specialty for definition of the diagnosis and appropriate therapeutical conduct.…”

“…However, in several published studies (3,5,11,12) the panoramic radiography has been utilized for observation and process analysis, because it is an easy-to-perform examination, besides being widely available for patients. For Arellano (13) , Basekim et al (6) and Heitz et al (15) , computed tomography is the most effective method for evaluating the styloid process length and morphological alterations, since this examination provides 2D and 3D reconstructions of the whole temporomandibular joint (16) . However, based on the results of the present study, one may consider that the modified radiography for the temporomandibular joint and the panoramic x-ray are good imaging methods for visualizing morphological alterations of the temporomandibular joint, including the styloid process.…”

“…The etiology of the styloid apophysis elongation (> 30 mm) still remains unknown. There are several theories explain the etiopathology of the disease such as idiopathic, congenital alteration resulting from the persistence of one of the precur-sory cartilages, or ossification of the styloid ligament (3) .…”

“…O diagnóstico diferencial da síndrome de Eagle inclui nevralgias glossofaríngea, trigeminal e do occipital, otite, mastoidite, cefaléias, disfunção da articulação temporomandibular, dor secundária a terceiros molares não irrompidos ou impactados, doenças inflamatórias da faringe e dor miofacial. 7,8,12 No caso apresentado, o diagnóstico diferencial com neuralgia occipital foi importante. Trata-se de uma causa incomum de cefaléia que pode apresentar-se com dor na região dos nervos occipitais, paroxística e em pontadas.…”
