The importance of this syndrome, lies in the fact that it may present with a range of commonly encountered, but occasionally potentially serious, symptoms. [bjgp.org]

A 35-year-old man presented with sharp neck pain and a foreign-body sensation in the throat. Computed tomography showed elongated styloid processes, and a diagnosis of Eagle’s syndrome was made. [nejm.org]

  CASE REPORT: Female 40 years old who complained for 7 years about intense right temporo-parietal headache, associated with ocular pains, otalgia, tinnitus and swallowing problems. These symptoms were unilateral. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Occasionally, it manifests as odynophagia, dysphonia, increased salivation, and headache. Not rarely, patients believe that they have not properly healed from their tonsillectomy. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Workup Blood work is required to exclude possible systemic diseases. A complete blood count (CBC) is obtained if infection is suspected. [emedicine.medscape.com]

• Cervical Spine X-Ray

  While lateral plain cervical spine X-rays demonstrate an elongated styloid process, the gold standard is CT scanning, with 3D reconstruction, which displays the proximity of an elongated, ossified styloid process to adjacent structures. [bjgp.org]

Treatment Surgery is a common and effective treatment for Eagle syndrome. Surgery to shorten the styloid process is the primary treatment for Eagle syndrome. This procedure, called a styloidectomy, can be done through the mouth or neck. [medicalnewstoday.com]

Treatment can last anywhere from three months or as an ongoing course for pain management. [colgate.com]

Now, the main treatment for FBS is the intraparotid injection of botulinum toxin (BT) based on different treatment procedures. [jomos.org]

Treatment of Eagle syndrome is both surgical and nonsurgical. Nonsurgical treatments include reassurance, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, and steroid injections (1). Surgical treatment is by one of two methods. Otolaryngologist W. [ajnr.org]

Treatment and prognosis In many cases, once the cause of pain has been attributed to the styloid process rather than a more sinister entity, no further treatment is required, or perhaps analgesics can be offered for pain alleviation. [radiopaedia.org]

However, the prognosis in surgical failures should also be considered. Compression of the internal carotid artery because of styloid elongation can lead to a transient ischaemic attack which is quite intimidating. [sajr.org.za]

Various etiologic theories have been proposed to explain the development of Eagle syndrome. The first one stresses the congenital elongation of the styloid process due to the persistence of the cartilaginous precursor. [ejo.eg.net]

The pathogenesis of Eagle Syndrome (ES) is still misunderstood, and several theories have been proposed for its etiology. [jomos.org]

Etiology This topic is still being debated. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Although etiology and pathophysiology of this syndrome was poorly understood, it was first defined as “stylalgia”and related to abnormal length of the styloid process or calcified stylohyoid membrane[ 2 ]. [kbb-forum.net]

The pathophysiological explanation of FBS depends on an irritative or traumatic factor in the sympathetic nerve fibers of the parotid gland. [jomos.org]

The pathophysiological mechanism of symptoms is debated as well. [ajnr.org]

The clinical manifestations of Eagle syndrome have been explained by varied pathophysiological explanations. Fracture of the styloid process may lead to granulation tissue proliferation, which causes pressure on surrounding structures. [ejo.eg.net]

[…] that dystrophic and degenerative changes in the hyoid complex of the styloid process might be the cause for ES, others suggest that cervico-facial inflammations, tumours, tonsillectomies and trauma could play a major role in causing ES. 4 The suggested pathophysiological [sajr.org.za]
