Abstract
Eagle syndrome consists of an elongation of the styloid processes with calcification of the stylohyoid ligaments, unilaterally or bilaterally. Characteristically, it produces a temporal or retroauricular headache, which is exacerbated by speaking and chewing, with pain on palpation of the tonsillar pillars. Knowing its form of clinical and semiological presentation allows requesting the appropriate complementary tests that avoid delays in diagnosis and thus guide the correct treatment.
