Abstract

Objective: In this study; we aimed to evaluate the prevalence,clinical and radiographic findings of elongated styloid process (SP)and Eagle syndrome (ES) in Eastern Aegean Turkish population. Methods: Recordings of 3678 patients over 18 years of age wereexamined who were admitted to Afyon Kocatepe University Facultyof Dentistry, Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery,between July 1 and December 31, 2014. Length, elongation type,calcification shape, single or double sided appearance of SP andclinical findings were recorded.Results: In 258 patients (112 male, 146 female), SP were found tobe elongated (7.01%). In 9 patients (3 male, 6 female) (0.24%),symptoms were considered as ES. There was no difference betweenage, sex and elongated SP (p>0.05).Conclusion: The elongation of the SP may cause a variety of clinicalsymptoms. This situation may be confused with many other clinicalproblems. Elongated SP or ES which can be detected in panoramicradiographs should be consulted with the ear-nose-throat clinic.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada; uzamış stiloid proçes (SP) ve Eagle sendromunun (ES) Doğu Ege Türk toplumundaki prevalansı, klinik ve radyografik bulguları ile yaş, cinsiyet ve panoramik radyografın (PR) durumun teşhisindeki rolünün incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntemler: Uzamış SP’lerin tespiti için Afyon Kocatepe Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi, Ağız Diş ve Çene Cerrahisi Anabilim Dalı sistemine 1 Temmuz-31 Aralık 2014 tarihleri arasında kaydı alınmış 18 yaşından büyük 3678 hastanın panoramik radyografları (PR) incelenerek; uzamış SP’ler uzunluğu, uzama tipi, kalsifikasyon şekli, tek ya da çift taraflı görünmesine göre sınıflandırılmıştır. Klinik bulgular da ayrıca kaydedilmiştir. Bulgular: SP’nin 258 hastada (112 erkek, 146 kadın) uzamış (elongated) (%7,01) olduğu ve 9 (3 erkek, 6 kadın) (%0,24) hastada bulguların ES ile uyumlu olduğu görülmüştür. Uzamış SP ile yaş ve cinsiyet arasında anlamlı bir fark bulunamamıştır (p>0,05). Sonuç: SP’nin uzaması çeşitli klinik problemlere sebep olabilir. Bu durum birçok başka klinik tablo ile karışabilir. PR’de de tespit edilebilecek bu durumun kulak-burun-boğaz kliniği ile konsültasyonunun faydalı olabileceği düşünülmelidir.
