IFOMPT developed the framework for safety assessment of the cervical Styloid spine, and this topic has been discussed in-depth with past masterclasses characterizing carotid artery dissection CAD and cervical arterial dysfunction. Our masterclass will expand on this information with knowledge of specific Carotid anatomical anomalies found to produce Eagle’s syndrome, and cause carotid artery dissection, stroke and even Autonomic Manipulation death. Eagle’s syndrome is an underdiagnosed, multi-mechanism symptom assortment produced by provocation of the sensitive carotid space structures by styloid process anomalies. As the styloid traverses between the internal and external carotid arteries, provocation of the vessels and periarterial sympathetic nerve fiberscan lead to various neural, vascular and autonomic symptoms. Eagle’s syndrome commonly presents as neck, facial and jaw pain, headache and arm paresthesias; problems physical therapists frequently evaluate and treat. Purpose: This masterclass aims to outline the safety concerns, assessment and management of patients with Eagle’s syndrome and styloid anomalies.

Abstract Chronic orofacial pain is a symptom associated with a wide range of neuropathic, neurovascular, idiopathic, and myofascial conditions that affect a significant proportion of the population. While the collective impact of the subset of the orofacial pain disorders involving neurogenic and idiopathic mechanisms is substantial, some of these are relatively uncommon. Hence, patients with these disorders can be vulnerable to misdiagnosis, sometimes for years, increasing the symptom burden and delaying effective treatment. This manuscript first reviews the decision tree to be followed in diagnosing any neuropathic pain condition, as well as the levels of evidence needed to make a diagnosis with each of several levels of confidence: definite, probable, or possible.

  • Eagle Syndrome: Case Report
    AĞRI 2013;25(2):87-89 CASE REPORT - OLGU SUNUMU doi: 10.5505/agri.2013.26779 Eagle syndrome: case report Eagle sendromu: Olgu sunumu İrem Fatma ULUDAĞ,1 Levent ÖCEK,1 Yaşar ZORLU,1 Burhanettin ULUDAĞ2 Summary Eagle syndrome is an aggregate of symptoms caused by an elongated styloid process, most frequently resulting in headache, facial pain, dysphagia and sensation of foreign body in throat. The proper diagnosis is not difficult with clinical history, physi- cal examination and radiographic assessment if there is a sufficient degree of suspicion. The treatment is very effective. We report here a typical case of Eagle syndrome which was misdiagnosed as trigeminal neuralgia for many years and was treated with carbamazepine. We aim to point the place of Eagle syndrome in the differential diagnosis of facial pain. We also re- emphasize the usefulness of the three-dimensional computed tomography in the diagnosis of Eagle syndrome. Even though Eagle syndrome is a rare condition, in cases of facial pain refractory to treatment or unexplained complaints of the head and neck region, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis as it has therapeutic consequences. Key words: Cervicofacial pain; Eagle syndrome; facial pain; trigeminal neuralgia. Özet Eagle sendromu, elonge stiloid çıkıntının neden olduğu belirtiler topluluğudur.

  • B. Relatively Localized Syndromes of the Head and Neck
    B. RELATIVELY LOCALIZED SYNDROMES OF THE HEAD AND NECK GROUP II: NEURALGIAS OF THE HEAD AND FACE Trigeminal Neuralgia (Tic Douloureux) (II-1) Definition Sudden, usually unilateral, severe brief stabbing recurrent pains in the distribution of one or more branches of the Vth cranial nerve. Site Strictly limited to the distribution of the Vth nerve; unilateral in about 95% of the cases. Usually involves one branch; may involve two or, rarely, even all three branches. The second, third, and first branches of the Vth cranial nerve are involved in the foregoing order of frequency. The pain is more frequent on the right side. System Nervous system. Main Features Prevalence: relatively rare. Incidence: men 2.7, women 5.0 per 100,000 per annum in USA. Most patients have a lesion compressing the nerve where it leaves the brain stem. In patients with multiple sclerosis, there is also an increased incidence of tic douloureux. Sex Ratio: women affected perhaps more commonly than men. Age of Onset: after fourth decade, with peak onset in fifth to seventh decades; earlier onset does occur, but onset before age 30 is uncommon. Pain Quality: sharp, agonizing electric shock-like stabs or pain felt superficially in the skin or buccal mucosa, triggered by light mechanical contact from a more or less restricted site (trigger point or trigger zone), usually of brief duration-a few seconds (but reportedly occasionally up to 1-2 minutes followed by a refractory period of up to a few minutes. Time Pattern: paroxysms may occur at intervals or many times daily or, in rare instances, succeed one another almost continuously.
