Abstract

Eagle’s syndrome results from a calcified corresponding impact ligament or an elongated styloid process (ES). Neck or throat pain with ipsilateral ear radiation are other symptoms. Symptoms may be mistaken for facial neuralgias. Radiological and physical examinations may diagnose ES. ES is treated surgically. Intraoral or external procedures shorten the styloid process. The primary goal of this research was to investigate all aspects of Eagle’s syndrome that might be significant to its care and prognosis. In this study, we have used secondary research approach. In this paper, we analyzed several papers and articles to comprehensively review the Eagle’s syndrome. Our study demonstrates that an expanded styloid process isn't usually a sign of Eagle’s syndrome. Depending on the etiology, a prominent lateral misconfiguration can induce anything from a little cervicofacial irritation to deadly ischemic damage. The symptoms were caused by the styloid process's length and anterior angulation, not its medial angulation. Keywords: Eagle’s syndrome, elongated styloid, pain, sensation, treatment.
