Eagle's syndrome can produce symptoms that may be easily confused with those resulting from wearing a prosthetic restoration. The symptoms resulting from elongated styloid processes and methods of diagnosis and treatment of these processes were described. A patient with Eagle's syndrome has been presented. The symptoms were initially suspected to be due to an ill-fitting mandibular removable partial denture. Further clinical and radiographic examination led to the diagnosis of Eagle's syndrome, and surgical correction was done. The prosthodontist should consider surgery as a possible treatment when the symptoms of the syndrome cannot be attributed to a prosthetic restoration. Various radiographic projections and panoramic radiography are valuable in confirming the presence of a calcified stylohyoid ligament or an elongated styloid process.
鹰综合征可产生一些症状，这些症状可能容易与佩戴修复体所导致的症状相混淆。本文描述了茎突过长所产生的症状以及针对这些情况的诊断和治疗方法。文中介绍了一名患有鹰综合征的患者。该患者最初的症状被怀疑是由于下颌可摘局部义齿不合适所致。进一步的临床和影像学检查确诊为鹰综合征，并进行了手术矫正。当综合征的症状不能归因于修复体时，口腔修复医生应考虑手术作为一种可能的治疗方法。各种放射影像学投照和全景片对于确认钙化的茎突舌骨韧带或茎突过长的存在很有价值。
