ABSTRACT
Calcification of the stylohyoide ligament or Eagle syndrome, which causes a group of symptoms caused by an elongated ossified styloid process, is still unclear. 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 hypersalivation. These findings are well documented in otolaryngology and dental literature but has not been sufficiently reported in the radiology literature, although it often goes undetected in the absence of radiographic studies. In this case series report, we will present radiographic evidence on a series of CBCT views and 3D reconstructions of three cases with clinical evidence of Eagle syndrome
