Abstract

Evidence from research and literature suggest that Eagle’s syndrome may present with a variety of symptoms creating diagnostic predicament amongst clinicians. We describe a detailed clinical review of symptomatology, diagnosis and management of hundred and one cases of stylalgia. The aim of our study was to asses effectiveness of intraoral styloidectomy as a definitive modality of treatment in stylalgia. A prospective clinical study was conducted in a tertiary referral centre and included 101 patients presenting with symptoms suggestive of stylalgia. The diagnosis of stylalgia was confirmed by history and clinical examination supplemented by orthopentomogram. All patients underwent intra oral styloidectomy following adequate trial of medical treatment. The success rate of intraoral styloidectomy was found to be 80. 19% i.e. 81 out of 101 patients were considered as cured based on pain assessment using visual analogue scale pre and post operatively. Though medical treatment can provide short term relief of symptoms, styloidectomy is the proven definitive modality of treatment for stylalgia.
