ABSTRACT

The styloid process originates from the tympanic portion of the temporal bone, its growth or ossification of the stylohyoid ligament may cause several symptoms, among which are dysphagia, odynophagia, facial pain, otalgia, neck pain, trismus among others. Some of these symptoms in the presence of an elongated styloid process are known as Eagle syndrome. The diagnosis is based on clinical examination and CT imaging, 3D reconstruction is useful. Surgical treatment is indicated in those who failed medical treatment and can be performed by transoral approach or external approaches. This paper reports two cases diagnosed and treated in the Department of Otorhinolaringology of the Centro Médico Nacional 20 de Noviembre, and makes a review of cases reported in the literature in order to establish the clinical features of this entity and the results of the treatments described.
