Eagle's syndrome is a little known entity defined as the elongation of the stylohyoid process and/or calcification of the stylohyoid ligament. It is a rare pathology that due to its presentation and possible complications should be taken into consideration in the differential diagnosis of oropharyngeal dysphagia.
