[Surgery of the elongated styloid syndrome].

The symptomatology sometimes due to a giant styloid process can be very troublesome and at the same time unspecific, raising differential diagnosis problems with a large group of pathologies. We report a clinical case of elongated styloid syndrome, stylalgia or Eagle's syndrome, that forced our team to the exeresis of the anomalous process. We emphasizes the relative simplicity of the diagnosis and its treatment as well, especially when the intrabucal approach is followed.

Possible pathogenic mechanisms are discussed, and precautions against nephrotoxicity are emphasized.

The histologic features of undifferentiated carcinoma of the base of the tongue and lymphoepithelioma, or lymphoepithelial carcinoma, of the nasopharynx are identical and can be considered synonymous. The frequency of undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma (lymphoepithelioma) located on the base of the tongue is discussed because undifferentiated carcinoma of the base of the tongue is considered to be the same tumor.

[Cholesterol granuloma of the temporal lobe].

Cholesterol granuloma is a histological term used to describe a non-specific inflammatory reaction produced by the presence of cholesterol crystals, which may originate a foreign-body reaction. Cholesterol granuloma of the temporal bone is silent for years and not preceded by a history of otitis media. The diagnosis is made by CT and MRI, which reveal an expansive, isodense lesion brain tissue and increased signal intensity on both T1 and T2-weighted images respectively. A case of cholesterol granuloma of the petrous apex is presented. The granuloma was excised completely using an infra-retrolabyrinthine approach.
