Abstract:
Eagle syndrome is a rare and controversial condition characterized by a long styloid process causing irritation to surrounding structures. In this article, we report the case of a 56-year-old female patient who presented with pain when swallowing and bilateral lateral neck pain evolving over a few years. Diagnosis was made using cervical-facial computed tomography without contrast enhancement with multiplanar reconstructions and 3D volumetric reconstructions. Eagle syndrome is a challenging diagnosis for cervical-facial pain. Diagnosis relies on clinical and radiological findings, and surgical intervention is the treatment of choice.
