“…3D-CT images reformatted from the raw data obtained with a spiral scanner provide the necessary information on the styloid process, including its length, direction, and anatomical relation to adjacent tissues. Previous studies reported that 3D-CT is reliable for measurement of the actual length of the styloid process and the stylohyoid ligament [9-11], and helpful in establishing the diagnosis of Eagle's syndrome. In addition, 3D-CT helps the patient understand the abnormality and planned treatment.…”

Eagle's syndrome is often associated with elongated styloid process or ossified stylohyoid or stylomandibular ligament. Patients with this syndrome present with recurrent cervicofacial pain. Surgical removal of the elongated styloid process is a standard treatment and can be accomplished through either a transoral or extraoral approach. Both approaches have advantages and disadvantages, and the best surgical approach remains controversial. In our case, the elongated styloid process was removed by transoral approach assisted by endoscopy. Endoscopy provides clear surgical view thus lessen the chance of neurovascular injury and other intraoperative complications. Endoscopy-assisted transoral resection is an optional alternative surgical procedure for Eagle's syndrome.

“…Dans la série de Wada et al [29], le scanner avait une utilité certaine dans le diagnostic de la maladie. D'autres auteurs comme Hass et al [30] et Bafaqeeh et al [31] ont rapporté la fiabilité dans la mesure de processus styloïde et du ligament stylo-hyoïdien lorsqu'ils utilisaient les reconstructions 3D MPR (multiplanar reconstruction) et VRT (volume rendering technique).…”

Objectives: share our experience on the cervical scanner for the clinical suspicion of Eagle syndrome. Materials and methods: iconographic review over a period of 03 years from 01 August 2015 to 01 August 2018 including 43 patients, received in the radiology and medical imaging department of the regional hospital of Diourbel in a context of suspicion of Eagle syndrome in whom we performed a cervical CT scan without and with injection of contrast agent. The parameters studied were the length of the styloid process (normal less than 25 mm), topography, type according to the Langlais classification and the presence of vascular complications. The data were analysed using SPSS 24 and Excel 2016 software. Results: The average age was 38 and the sex ratio was 13.3 in favour of women. CT scan results were abnormal in 30 patients (70%). The average length of the styloid process elongations was 37.9 mm. It was bilateral in 23 patients (77%), unilateral right in 4 patients (13%) and unilateral left in 3 patients (10%). Type 1 according to the Langlais classification was found in 21 patients (70%) followed by type 3 in 8 patients (27%). No vascular complications were found. Conclusion: The CT scan made it possible to diagnose Eagle syndrome and to specify the type. RÉSUMÉ Objectifs : partager notre expérience sur le scanner cervical pour la suspicion clinique du syndrome d’Eagle. Matériels et méthodes : revue iconographique sur une période de 03 ans allant du 01 aout 2015 au 01 août 2018 incluant 43 patients, reçus dans le service de radiologie et imagerie médicale de l’hôpital régional de Diourbel dans un contexte de suspicion de syndrome d’Eagle chez qui nous avons réalisé une TDM cervicale sans et avec injection de produit de contraste. Les paramètres étudiés étaient la longueur du processus styloïde (normale inférieure à 25 mm), la topographie, le type selon la classification de Langlais et la présence de complications vasculaires. Les données ont été analysées avec les logiciels SPSS 24 et Excel 2016. Résultats : L’âge moyen était de 38 ans et le sex-ratio de 13,3 en faveur des femmes. Les résultats de la TDM étaient anormaux chez 30 patients (70%). La longueur moyenne des élongations du processus styloïde était de 37,9 mm. Elle était bilatérale chez 23 patients (77 %), unilatérale droite chez 4 patients (13%) et unilatérale gauche chez 3 patients (10%). Le type 1 selon la classification de Langlais était trouvé chez 21 patients (70%) suivi du type 3 chez 8 patients (27%). Aucune complication vasculaire n’a été retrouvée. Conclusion : la tomodensitométrie a permis de poser le diagnostic de syndrome d’Eagle et de préciser le type.

Eagle's syndrome: A review of the literature

et al. 2009

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Eagle's syndrome represents symptoms brought on by compression of regional structures by elongation of the styloid process or ossification of the stylohyoid or stylomandibular ligaments. Watt Eagle described it for the first time in 1937, dividing it into two subtypes: the "classic syndrome" and the "stylo-carotid artery syndrome." Many theories have been put forth regarding its pathogenesis. Depending on the underlying pathogenetic mechanism and the anatomical structures compressed or irritated by the styloid process, symptoms vary greatly, ranging from cervicofacial pain to cerebral ischemia. The syndrome generally follows tonsillectomy or trauma. Diagnosis is confirmed by radiological findings. Palpation of the styloid process in the tonsillar fossa and infiltration with anesthesia are also used in making the diagnosis. The treatment is primarily surgical; however, some conservative treatments have also been used. The current literature on Eagle's syndrome is reviewed, highlighting its often underestimated frequency and its clinical importance.
