Open Styloidectomy using Intraoral Approach

K. Nisharudeen*, **
Periodicity:October - December'2022

Abstract

Eagle's syndrome is a condition that causes craniofacial and cervical pain associated with an elongated styloid process (more than 25 mm) or calcified stylohyoid ligament. In cases where the symptoms are severe, surgical removal is necessary to relieve pain and discomfort. The aim of this paper is to discuss a new, simpler technique for styloidectomy using an intraoral approach that can be easily performed under local anesthesia without the need for general anesthesia, and that avoids leaving an extraoral scar.
