Eagle’s syndrome (ES), also known as the
stylohyoid syndrome, is defined as the elongation of a styloid process by more
than 30 mm and the mineralization of the stylohyoid-stylomandibular ligament.
Two types of ES are described in the literature: classical stylohyoid syndrome
and vascular stylocarotid syndrome. While bilateral ES is commonly seen in
women, the symptoms are usually unilateral. This case report describes the
surgical treatment of a 45-year-old female patient with bilaterally-elongated
styloid processes who presented with vascular ES symptoms. A literature review
is also included.

 

 

Eagle Sendromu (ES) veya
Stilohyoid Sendromu, stiloid prosesin 30 mm'den fazla uzaması ve
stilohyoid-stilomandibular ligamentin mineralizasyonu olarak tanımlanmaktadır.
Literatürde iki ES formu tanımlanmaktadır. Bunlar klasik tip stilohyoid sendrom
ve vasküler tip stilokarotid sendromudur. ES sıklıkla kadınlarda ve bilateral
olarak görülürken, belirtiler genellikle tek taraflıdır. Bu olguda bilateral
olarak uzamış stiloid prosesi olan ve Eagle tipi sendromun vasküler tipini
destekleyen semptomlarla başvuran 45 yaşında bir kadın hasta ele alınmış ve
ilgili literatür sunulmuştur.
