Eagle Syndrome with Internal Carotid Artery Compression Causing Recurred Syncope.
Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan)(2023)
摘要
We herein report a 54-year-old man with eagle syndrome who presented with repeated episodes of syncope, especially after moving his head to a downward position. Computed tomography with contrast revealed a bilateral elongated styloid process. The left internal carotid artery was obviously compressed by the left elongated styloid processes. A transcranial Doppler examination detected a significantly decreased blood flow velocity in the left middle cerebral artery when the patient slightly lowered his head position. After surgery, the positional cerebral blood flow alteration disappeared. No further similar syncope episodes have been reported to date.
