Background: The external carotid artery (ECA) branching pattern has been extensively studied in the current literature. However, its topographical variability has been barely reported. The aim of the current study was to assess the ECA in relationship with the styloid process (SP) and the mandible.

There are cases of skeletal developmental features that have high identification significance for the search of missing person in forensic medical practice of skeletal remains examination. The features of the skull's anatomical structure may indicate the presence of some clinical syndromes, for which a person could have sought medical attention in the lifetime. In the described case, elongated styloid appendages of the temporal bones were identified on the skull of an unknown person found within the territory of the Leningrad region, which could be a sign of the stylohyoid syndrome (Eagle syndrome).

Article Synopsis
- Eagle syndrome is a bone disease causing the styloid process (a small bone near the neck) to grow too long, leading to pain in the throat and neck.
- A study looked at 6 patients and found they mostly had neck pain, a feeling like something is stuck in their throat, and difficulty swallowing.
- The researchers discovered that the elongated styloid processes were made of mature bone and might be growing differently than what was previously thought, which helps understand why this happens.
Τhe styloid process length and the stylohyoid chain ossification affect its relationship with the carotid arteries.

Purpose: The elongated styloid process (SP) is associated with internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection, due to its close relationship with the vessel. However, the relationship with the variable ossified stylohyoid chain (SHC) has been scarcely studied. The current study investigated the relationship between the temporal bone's SP and the external and internal carotid arteries (ECA and ICA).

A 54-year-old male patient presented for a periodic check-up at the dental clinic. A panoramic radiograph showed bilateral ossification of the stylohyoid ligament with an oval radiopacity on the right side. Cone-beam computed tomography revealed a well-defined, homogenous hyperdense entity from the lower third of the ossified stylohyoid ligament on the right side.
