Transoral para-tonsillar robotic approach for eagle syndrome: A technical note and exemplifying case - 27/03/26

Abstact |
Eagle Syndrome refers to an elongation of the styloid process or a calcification of the stylohyoid ligament mainly resulting in pain in the orofacial region.
The treatment of Eagle syndrome includes conservative treatment or surgical removal of the styloid process. Two different surgical approaches have been described in the literature: the transoral and transcervical approaches. Both have their limitations and specific intraoperative risks.
With the advent and the expanding utilization of new technologies, transoral robotic surgery has emerged as a promising minimally invasive approach for the treatment of Eagle syndrome.
Herein we describe our method of styloidectomy via the transoral robotic surgery tonsil sparing approach.
