New forms of vascular pathology: stylocarotid, hyoid-carotid, thyroid-carotid and stylo-jugular syndromes

Abstract
For the first time the possibility of ultrasound diagnostics of stylocarotid, hyoid-carotid, thyroid-carotid and stylo-jugular syndromes is shown in patients with impaired cerebral circulation.
The necessity of reconstruction of bone-cartilage transitional structures with standard MR/CT angiography is justified.
Abnormal structures of the styloid process such as elongation or curvature, the hyoid bone or thyroid cartilage, often in combination with ossification of the stylohyoid or stylomandibular ligaments can cause compression of the internal carotid artery with the formation of dissection, intramural hematoma, stenosis, occlusions and aneurysms. Additionally, symptoms of impaired cerebral circulation start to develop in these patients. Extravasal compression by the styloid process and/or the transverse process of the first cervical vertebra can reduce the blood flow in the internal jugular vein. But only standard vascular imaging is performed in cases of cerebral circulatory disorders, without reconstruction of adjacent bone and cartilage structures. Therefore, there is insufficient data on compression lesions of the neck vessels. Moreover, there is lack of data on ultrasound imaging of vascular Eagle syndrome. The article presents authors` experience of ultrasound diagnostics of this pathology in combination with clinical, angiographic and CT nuances.
