Eagle’s syndrome represent as a neck, cervicofacial pain, dysphagia, facial globus sensation, tinnitus, otalgia and headache, it may be unilateral or bilateral. About 4% of adult population accounted elongated styloid process, which are the principal factor followed by 0.16% patients symptomatic. Stylohyoid ligament calcification is second most common factor. The diagnosis must made through det...

Orthopantomograms of different individuals were studied to understand the prevalence morphological variants in styloid process. New types processes identified other than that found existing classification while proceeding with study. Thus, a deeper examination this topic felt interesting. To identify anatomical variations process and its distribution according age gender on digital panoramic ra...

he aim of this study was to estimate the reproducibility related to the presence and to the measurements of elongated styloid process (ESP), based on panoramic radiographs and the prevalence of ESP. Experimental design: one hundred sixty six panoramic radiographs were used, from edentulous patients from the Radiology Clinic files, at Araraquara Dental School, Unesp, during a four-year period. O...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this case report was to characterize styloid/C1 transverse process juxtaposition as a cause for Eagle's syndrome. METHODS AND RESULTS A case series was conducted with a chart review of 5 patients with radiographic evidence of jugular vein compression who underwent styloid process excision between 2010 and 2013. There were 4 men and 1 woman, aged 35 to 62 years (mean,...

Eagle’s syndrome is a rare cause of chronic cervical and throat pain connected with styloid process elongation. The etiology of this disorder remains unclear. The authors presented four cases of symptomatic, one-sided and both-sided elongation of the styloid process. Moreover, the study presented aspects of diagnosis and treatment of Eagle’s syndrome. The Authors especially focused on surgical ...

In a cranium of a male cadaver styloid processes have been found to be unusually long with different lengths. Elongation of styloid process involvethe entire 'Stylohyoid complex/chain', though not rare as reported in earlier literatures, but the osseomorphological and radiological analysis of present case brings out a unique variety as its described in the article.
