Abstract

Calcification of the stylohyoide ligament or Eagle syndrome, which cause is still unclear, is a group of symptoms caused by an elongated ossified styloid process. It can occur unilaterally or bilaterally and most frequently results in symptoms of dysphagia, headache, pain on rotation of the neck, pain on extension of the tongue, change in voice, and a sensation of hyper salivation. This finding is well documented in otolaryngology literature and dentistry literature but has not been sufficiently reported in the radiology literature, although it often goes undetected in the absence of radiographic studies. In these report, we will present some radiographic evidences on a series of CBCT views and 3D reconstructions of three cases with clinical evidence of Eagle syndrome.
