The book provides a comprehensive discussion on the diagnosis and treatment of Eagle Syndrome, drawing on the clinical expertise of the authors. Eagle Syndrome, also known as Symptomatic Styloid Process Elongation, is a rare clinical condition that presents with various manifestations that often go unnoticed in many affected patients for extended periods. Its impact on patients' lives can be severe and occasionally life-threatening, compounded by prolonged frustration due to an ongoing and undiagnosed condition with no apparent solutions. The crucial factor in identifying this clinical entity is acknowledging its existence and considering it in the differential diagnosis during routine practice. In most cases, a detailed medical history, a standard ENT examination, and basic imaging are sufficient. Upon a confirmed diagnosis, a wide array of potentially effective conservative and surgical treatments becomes available. Unfortunately, the global literature primarily consists of individual or limited case reports, with few comprehensive overviews and no dedicated monographs.
