A classification of the radiographic appearance of elongated and mineralized stylohyoid ligament complexes based on three types of complexes--Type I, elongated; Type II, pseudoarticulated; and Type III, segmented--is proposed. These types are further described by a pattern of calcification: calcified outline, partially calcified, nodular, and completely calcified. The classification is illustrated in a case of Eagle's syndrome in a 55-year-old Mexican-American man with symptoms of chronic otalgia and cephalgia. The surgical management and follow-up of this patient are discussed.
基于三种类型的复合体——I型，细长型；II型，假性关节型；III型，节段型——提出了一种对拉长且矿化的茎突舌骨韧带复合体的影像学表现的分类方法。这些类型通过钙化模式进一步描述：钙化轮廓、部分钙化、结节状和完全钙化。在一名患有慢性耳痛和头痛症状的55岁墨西哥裔美国男性的鹰综合征病例中对该分类进行了说明。并讨论了该患者的手术治疗及随访情况。
