This case report presents three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) findings in the diagnosis of Eagle's syndrome that is characterized with an elongated styloid process or a calcified stylohyoid ligament causing craniofacial or cervical pain. We have performed 3D-CT in three patients suspected to have this condition. Coronal images were taken in two patients and axial images in one patient...

BACKGROUND Elongated styloid process syndrome (Eagle's syndrome) is the term given to the symptomatic elongation of the styloid process or the mineralization of the stylohyoid or stylomandibular ligament. The two commonly used approaches for the surgical treatment of this syndrome are the transcervical and transoral approaches. Both have their limitations and specific intraoperative risks. Here...

We report a case of an adult woman with an Eagle's Syndrome (ES) treated with medical therapy. ES is characterized by an aspecific orofacial pain secondary to calcification of the stylohyoid ligament or elongated styoid process. In about 4% of general population an elongated styloid process occurs, while only about 4% of these patients are symptomatic. We report a case of a 49-year-old lady wit...

Introduction: This study aims to evaluate the dentomaxillofacial radiographic changes in end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who were on hemodialysis. Methods: Parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcium, phosphorus and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) measurements, as well as Panoramic and periapical radiographs were obtained from seventy four patients with a history of end stage renal disease (ESRD). Re...

Eagle’s syndrome, the famous discovery of W. Eagle, is associated with repeated episodes of pain on rotating the neck, dysphagia and referred otalgia due to elongation of styloid process or ossified stylohyoid. Familiarity with Eagle’s syndrome shows that its symptoms can be easily confused with other craniomandibular diseases. Since it is a rare clinical entity, its diagnosis is often hard to ...

Knowledge of the Eagle's syndrome shows that its symptoms can be very easily confused with other types of craniomandibular disorders, especially temporomandibular disorders (TMD). The aim of this study was to find a possible correlation between the presence of TMD and elongation of the styloid process as well relate to presence of calcification of the stilohyoid chain. Fifty patients with TMD, ...

Compartmental tongue surgery (CTS) is a surgical technique that removes the compartments (anatomo-functional units) containing the primary tumor, eliminating the disease and potential muscular, vascular, glandular and lymphatic pathways of spread and recurrence. Compartment boundaries are defined as each hemi-tongue bounded by the lingual septum, the stylohyoid ligament and muscle, and the mylo...

Introduction: The styloid process is a bony structure of the base skull, which can undergo pathological structural changes. So, its elongation may possibly provoke Eagle’s syndrome, also known as stylohyoid head and neck condition that rarely manifests with severely painful symptomatology. Objective: present literature review aims to deal understanding pathophysiology, well investigation diagno...

let $x$ be a sufficiently nice scheme. we survey some recent progress on dualizing complexes. it turns out that a complex in $kinj x$ is dualizing if and only if tensor product with it induces an equivalence of categories from murfet's new category $kmpr x$ to the category $kinj x$. in these terms, it becomes interesting to wonder how to glue such equivalences.

The concept of complex fuzzy sets is a generalization of ordinary fuzzy sets. In this paper, we introduce the concept of complex fuzzy subhypergroups ($H_{v}$-subgroups) as well as the concept of complex anti-fuzzy subhypergroups ($H_{v}$-subgroups). We investigate their properties and their relations with the traditional fuzzy (anti-fuzzy) subhypergroups ($H_{v}$-subgroups), and we prove some ...
