Description

Eagle’s Syndrome - Computed tomography revealed two elongated styloid processes with ossification of the stylohyoid ligaments (Panel A, arrows). Eagle’s syndrome is a rare clinical condition that can be associated with a triad of cervical pain, foreign-body sensation in the throat, and dysphagia. It is caused by the elongation of the styloid process or ossification of the stylohyoid ligament. The patient underwent tonsillostyloidectomy. During surgery, an elongated styloid process was visualized (Panel B, arrow) and was removed on each side. #Clinical #ENT #Radiology #CT #Eagle #EagleSyndrome #StyloidProcess #StylohyoidOssification #NEJM
