“…An elongated styloid process may be palpated during intraoral examination and may elicit symptoms of Eagle syndrome. 9 Diagnosis is made both radiologically as well as by physical examination by palpating the styloid process in the tonsillar fossa. Palpation of the tip of the styloid process in the tonsillar fossa is indicative of elongated styloid process as normal length is not palpable.…”

ÖZEagle sendromu "styloid" proçesin uzaması veya "stylohyoid" ya da "stylomandibular" ligamentin mineralizasyonu sonucu geliĢir. Faringeal ağrı, farinks te yabancı cisim hissi, yutkunma güçlüğü, ağrılı yutkunma gibi semptomlar görülür. Ayırıcı tanıda temporomandibuler eklem rahatsızlıkları, miyofasial ağrı, nevraljiler, gömülü üçüncü molar diĢler, oral enfeksiyonlar, oral kanserler ve sialadenit düĢü-nülmelidir. Semptomların servikofasial ve kraniofasial bölgede ortaya çıkması ve çoğunlukla yanlıĢ tanılar konularak tedavi edilmeye çalıĢılması nedeni ile diĢ hekimleri sendromun farkında olmalıdır. Bu derlemenin amacı Eagle sendromu teĢhisinde diĢ hekimlerinin rolünü vurgulamak ve Eagle sendromu etiyolojisini, güncel tanı ve tedavi yöntemlerini sunmaktır.

“…1 Eagle's syndrome consists of a myriad of neuropathic and vascular occlusive symptoms caused by the abnormal elongation or angulation of the stylohyoid complex. 2,3 Since then, multiple reports describing the resection of the styloid process as treatment of this syndrome have been published. [4][5][6][7][8] Due to its rarity, there is lack of evidence regarding the best approach (transoral vs. transcervical), with selection usually based on the expertise of the treating surgeon and not on the particular characteristics of the stylohyoid complex.…”

Objectives Surgical treatment of Eagle's syndrome remains the mainstay of treatment. Palsy of the marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve is the most significant complication encountered in transcervical resections, due to direct compression during the approach. We proposed a modification of the craniocervical approach to the jugular foramen to resect the styloid process avoiding the marginal mandibular branch and subsequent palsy. Design Preset study is a single-center retrospective cohort study. Setting The research was conducted at a tertiary medical center. Participants From November 2008 to October 2018, 12 patients with Eagle's syndrome underwent treatment using our modified approach. Main Outcome Measures Demographic data, type of Eagle's syndrome, symptomatic side, size of the styloid process, clinical outcomes, and complications were analyzed. Results Mean size of the styloid processes was of 3.34 cm on the operated side (2.3–4.7 cm) and 2.98 cm on the other (2–4.2 cm). Intraoperative facial nerve irritation occurred in one case. Resection of the entire styloid process was achieved in all cases. Eight cases experienced complete improvement, three cases had a partial response, and one case failed to improve. There were no cases of recurrence. Two patients presented transient postoperative auricular paresthesia. There were no cases of mandibular branch palsy, nor any other complications in our series. Conclusions Our modified transcervical approach is effective in avoiding the marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve, avoiding postoperative palsy.

Is there a relationship between symptoms of patients and tomographic characteristics of styloid process?

Abstract: 3D-CT has several advantages according to conventional tomography for visualization of head and neck anatomy. The increase of medial angulation of SP may be responsible for the development of complaints in ESP.
