Arterial impingement (67.5%) was more frequent than venous impingement (32.5%). The most frequent consequence of arterial impingement was stroke (46.8%), while for venous impingement it was chronic headache (68%). Seventy-nine patients underwent styloidectomy as initial treatment: 78.5% of the patients were cured and 19.0% improved, while only 2.5% showed a recurrence. On the other hand, among the 106 patients treated medically without initial styloidectomy, only 24.5% of the patients were cured, 28.3% improved, and 47.2% had a recurrence. The association of symptoms of classic Eagle syndrome with neurovascular symptoms should prompt clinicians to consider this diagnosis and to measure the styloid length.

The PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases were searched for English-language articles published up to December 2023. Inclusion criteria encompassed clinical studies (randomized, prospective, retrospective, observational) that evaluated clinical and patient-reported outcomes after total unilateral TMJ prosthesis placement (both glenoid and mandibular components). The initial search identified 141 non-duplicate studies, of which eight remained after title and abstract reading. Four studies included only unilateral prostheses; the other four included bilateral interventions and/or control groups without any TMJ intervention. The studies reported on stock and custom prostheses, with custom prostheses being the most used. As the studies had different specific objectives, no pattern of data reporting was found and the research question could not be answered.

This review aimed to examine the impact of intraoral photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) on pain associated with local anaesthesia. Up to March 2024, two independent reviewers searched four databases, ultimately screening 17 randomized controlled trials for meta-analysis using Stata 17.0. The results indicate that intraoral PBMT application significantly reduces the perception of pain associated with local anaesthetic injections (standardized mean difference (SMD) -0.89, 95% confidence interval (CI) -1.27 to -0.52; P < 0.001).
