“…Theories behind the development of Eagle syndrome include an embryonic origin from retained cartilage from Reichert’s cartilage, abnormal ossification of the stylohyoid ligament, trauma-induced reactive hyperplasia/metaplasia, anatomic variation of the styloid process, and age-related chronic inflammation [ 4 ]. Cases of Eagle syndrome following trauma, radiation, surgery, or tonsillectomy have been reported, but the time interval between this supposed inciting event and the subsequent development of Eagle syndrome was years [ 5 ]. Eagle syndrome, in our case, was likely a result of an underlying anatomical aberration, which was visualized as an incidental finding on the CT neck following the development of angioedema.…”

Eagle syndrome is a condition that can present with a wide range of clinical manifestations, including orofacial pain, altered sensation, dysphagia, tinnitus, and ear pain, and is caused by the abnormal elongation of the styloid process or the mineralization of the stylohyoid ligament. We present a case of an incidental finding of Eagle syndrome in a 48-year-old African American patient with losartan-induced angioedema. The patient complained of a foreign body sensation in his throat and mild dysphagia, and a computed tomography scan of his neck showed ossification of bilateral stylohyoid ligaments. This case report highlights the importance of being on the lookout for other pathologies when ordering imaging for primary diagnoses.

“…The incidence of Eagle syndrome may be higher than in diagnosed cases as there is a high incidence of asymptomatic patients 19 . The etiology of Eagle syndrome includes head and neck trauma 23 , radiation therapy 24 , changes in phosphate balance, and PTH levels 25 . There is no association between age and Eagle syndrome.…”

Objectives: This paper aims to discuss some important aspects of surgical planning and treatment of some syndromes with maxillofacial implications. Methods: A case series of five different syndromes with maxillofacial implications was reported. We searched MEDLINE for a surgical approach to these maxillofacial syndromes. PROCESS guidelines have been adopted for the current case series. A Pearson correlation test was performed and considered significant only with a 95% confidence interval. Discussion: The number of publications on the subject of maxillofacial surgery is not related to the incidence of the reported syndromes. Surgical planning and treatment have been discussed in cases of Eagle´s syndrome, Jacob´s disease, Crouzon syndrome, Cleidocranial dysplasia, and Goldenhar syndrome. A brief report of the features of the syndrome and surgical procedures involved were evaluated. Conclusions: Styloidectomy and coronoidectomy are considered the best treatments for Eagle´s syndrome and Jacob´s disease, respectively. For some syndromes, tailored surgical treatment is essential. Some data must be considered in surgical planning and treatment. Depending on one characteristic or another, the surgical procedure can be chosen.
