Eagle syndrome, a condition causing craniofacial pain, is often overlooked, particularly in patients without a history of tonsillectomy. This review discusses its varied symptoms and diagnosis to improve clinical recognition.

Area of Science:

Otolaryngology
Anatomy
Embryology

Background:

Eagle syndrome, described in 1948, is typically associated with prior tonsillectomy.
The condition involves the stylohyoid complex and can present with craniofacial or pharyngeal pain.

Observation:

Patients without tonsillectomy history may be misdiagnosed, despite presenting with similar symptoms.
The diverse presentation and relative rarity of Eagle syndrome contribute to diagnostic challenges.

Findings:

This review presents cases of Eagle syndrome treated at the Ochsner Clinic.
Discussion includes anatomy, embryology, symptoms, differential diagnosis, workup, and treatment.

Implications:

Increased awareness can aid clinicians in diagnosing Eagle syndrome.
