The stylohyoid ligament is seen on lateral radiographs of the neck to be normally calcified to some extent in approximately 25% of all children between ages 1 1/2 and 15. When it appears, the ossification pattern is a relatively thin configuration in 90% of children. In 8 out of 9 children with Hurler syndrome, the stylohyoid was calcified, and was thicker than in normal children. This finding illustrates the nature of the stylohyoid ligament as a bone analogue, and its participation in the skeletal deformation pattern of dysostosis multiplex.
在颈部侧位X线片上可见，在1岁半至15岁的所有儿童中，约25%的人茎突舌骨韧带通常会有一定程度的钙化。当它出现时，90%的儿童骨化模式为相对较薄的形态。在9例Hurler综合征患儿中，有8例茎突舌骨韧带钙化，且比正常儿童的更厚。这一发现说明了茎突舌骨韧带作为一种类骨结构的性质，以及它在多发性骨发育异常的骨骼变形模式中的参与情况。
