We present the case of a 45 year male diagnosed with carcinoma base of tongue with stage T4N1M0 treated with concurrent chemoradiation in our institute. He presented with elongated styloid process post treatment completion. Radiation therapy to the head and neck has been found to cause potential long-term side effects like trismus, osteoradionecrosis, secondary cancer, and tissue fibrosis. Ionizing radiation activates the proinflammatory cascade ultimately leading to fibrosis and calcification. We suggest that Eagle’s syndrome should be considered as one the differential diagnosis of neck pain or facial pain developing after radiotherapy. The treatment modalities considered for this rare entity are conservative management of the symptoms and surgery in cases where conservative treatment fails.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100908,"journal":{"name":"Medical Reports","volume":"13 ","pages":"Article 100267"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144178174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Somatic variants in DNMT3A have been widely studied in different types of tumors, including acute myeloid leukemia, hematopoietic and lymphoid cancers. This report describes the case of a 37-year-old male with clinical features of MPD and heterozygous for a variant in the DNMT3A gene, c.911_913del:p.(Ser304del) in exon 8, who presented with severe weight loss and dysphagia and found with two synchronous distinct masses in the epiglottis and upper esophagus. Endoscopy guided biopsies of the epiglottic mass showed a poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and esophageal biopsy was consistent with a well to moderately differentiated SCC with keratinization. Next Generation sequence analysis (NGS) of both cancers showed overlapping pathways involving TP53 and MUTYH and similar PD-L1 combined positive score (CPS). The patient was treated with palliative radiation according to the Quad Shot regimen on the epiglottic and esophageal masses. Unfortunately, he deteriorated rapidly, and the family decided to transition to hospice care.
