Abstract:

Objective   To explore the reason of styloid syndrome after tonsillectomy and the clinical effect of styloidectomy. Methods   Seven patients with styloid syndrome after tonsillectomy received styloidectomy. The clinical effect was evaluated. Results   One side styloid was removed in six patients, while  both sides styloid were removed in one patient. All patients were followed-up for 3 months to 3 years after operation. Among them, 5 patients were cured and the others showed considerable alleviation. Conclusion   The mechanism of styloid syndrome after tonsillectomy might be related to the stimulation of scar formation in the tonsillar fossa. Styloidectomy is an effective treatment.

Key words: Tonsillectomy, Styloid syndrome, Styloidectomy
