Abstract

Eagle syndrome is an aggregate of symptoms caused by an elongated styloid process, most frequently resulting in headache, facial pain, dysphagia and sensation of foreign body in throat. The proper diagnosis is not difficult with clinical history, physi- cal examination and radiographic assessment if there is a sufficient degree of suspicion. The treatment is very effective. We report here a typical case of Eagle syndrome which was misdiagnosed as trigeminal neuralgia for many years and was treated with carbamazepine. We aim to point the place of Eagle syndrome in the differential diagnosis of facial pain. We also re- emphasize the usefulness of the three-dimensional computed tomography in the diagnosis of Eagle syndrome. Even though Eagle syndrome is a rare condition, in cases of facial pain refractory to treatment or unexplained complaints of the head and neck region, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis as it has therapeutic consequences.

Özet

Eagle sendromu, elonge stiloid çıkıntının neden olduğu belirtiler topluluğudur. Eagle sendromunda başağrısı, yüz ağrısı, disfaji ve boğazda yabancı cisim varlığı hissi sık görülür. Öykü, fizik muayene ve görüntüleme bulgularıyla kolayca tanı konulabilir. Cerrahi tedavi etkindir. Olgu yüz ağrısı şikayeti nedeniyle trigeminal nevralji tanısı almış ve uzun yıllardır karbamazepin kullanmaktadır. Düz kafa grafisi ve boyun bölgesinin üç boyutlu bilgisayarlı tomografisi tipik Eagle sendromu bulgularını göstermektedir. Bu olgu ile yüz ağrısı ayırıcı tanısında Eagle sendromunun yerine dikkat çekilmiş ve Eagle sendromu tanısında üç boyutlu bilgisayarlı tomog- rafinin kullanımı üzerinde durulmuştur. Eagle sendromu, nadir bir durum olarak düşünülse de, özellikle cerrahi tedaviye iyi yanıtı nedeniyle baş ve boyun bölgesiyle ilgili açıklanamayan şikayetleri olan, tıbbi tedaviye dirençli hastalarda akla gelmelidir.
