Elongated styloid process syndrome, which is synonymous with Eagle's syndrome, is a rare disease. Although an elongated styloid process is not always symptomatic, if it compresses the cranial nerves and/or carotid artery, a patient can present with sore throat, dysphasia, or dysphoria of the throat. We present two cases of elongated styloid process syndrome, focusing on the imaging findings. The elongated styloid processes were visualized by panoramic photograms. However, CT images, especially 3DCT images, were useful in visualizing the elongated styloid process itself as well as the relationship between the styloid process and surrounding soft tissue.
