| Popis: |
There are Published case studies involving diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) along with symptomatic ossification of the stylohyoid ligament, or “Eagle syndrome,” are rare. Coincidence of the Eagle syndrome and diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis can very rarely result with compression of the hypopharynx. The three-dimensional volume-rendered air-specific Multidetector computed tomography MDCT image is accurately used to show the relationship between the Oro-hypopharyngeal air column and the elongated styloid processes. The authors here described a very rare case of hypopharyngeal airway compression and nagging pharyngeal pain secondary to cervical osteophytes in a patient with coincidence of Eagle syndrome and diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis. A known case of ankylosing spondylosis under treatment since last three years with degenerative changes in the cervical spine was taken up for removal of styloid process under General anesthesia. Follow up was done for one year and it was uneventful. |
