Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Otolaryngology
  • Dentistry

Background:

  • Eagle syndrome is a rare condition resulting from an elongated ossified styloid process.
  • Symptoms include dysphagia, headache, neck pain, voice changes, and hypersalivation.
  • The exact cause of the elongated styloid process remains unclear.

Observation:

  • A 39-year-old woman presented with clinical evidence of Eagle syndrome.
  • Diagnostic CT and lateral view plain film radiography were utilized.
  • The syndrome can manifest unilaterally or bilaterally.

Findings:

  • The study presents rare radiographic evidence of Eagle syndrome.
  • Both plain film radiographs and CT scans provided diagnostic findings.
  • This case details specific imaging findings for the syndrome.
