This study was carried out in 165 patients submitted to the surgery of tonsils or adenoid from 1977 to 1989 at the Botucatu Medical School Hospital. The clinical signs and histopathological findings were reviewed. All patients exhibited similar complaints with recurrent tonsillitis, sore throat, dysphasia, high temperature, and enlarged tonsils. After surgery, the tonsils was submitted to histopathological study and showed "grains" in the crypts in 6 cases. Four cases (2.4%) of Actinomyces and two (1.2%) of Botryomyces were identified. Any clinical peculiarity was identified with the presence of these "grains."

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.

Varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection of the head and neck region may present with various symptoms. I present two cases of VZV infection of the pharynx and larynx with multiple cranial nerve neuropathies. Their initial symptoms such as sore throat, odynophagia, and dysphasia were complicated by otalgia, dizziness, hearing loss, or ipsilateral facial nerve paralysis. All of these lesions tended to lateralize to the ipsilateral side and endoscopic findings suggested VZV infections, which were confirmed by serial serologic examinations.
