Eagle syndrome, which is an uncommon sequela of elongation of the styloid process, can manifest as pain in the anterolateral neck, often with referred pain to the ear. In most cases, the elongation is an acquired condition, often occurring as a result of a traumatic incident, including tonsillectomy. We describe the case of a 57-year-old man who experienced unremitting right neck pain for several years following an accidental fall. A multidisciplinary investigation identified an elongated styloid process. Surgical shortening of the structure provided definitive relief of the patient's symptoms. We review the anatomy of the peristyloid structures and discuss the etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of Eagle syndrome.
鹰综合征是茎突过长的一种罕见后遗症，可表现为颈前外侧疼痛，常伴有耳部牵涉痛。在大多数情况下，茎突过长是一种后天性疾病，常因创伤事件（包括扁桃体切除术）而发生。我们描述了一名57岁男性的病例，他在意外摔倒后数年一直遭受右颈部疼痛。多学科检查发现茎突过长。对该结构进行手术缩短后，患者症状得到了彻底缓解。我们回顾了茎突周围结构的解剖，并讨论了鹰综合征的病因、诊断和治疗。
