Atypical presentation of Eagle syndrome with hypoglossal nerve palsy and Horner syndrome
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Many nerve injuries have been associated with Eagle syndrome. The cranial nerves V, VII, IX, and X have been reported to be injured by the elongated styloid process in this syndrome. METHODS: We describe a case of Eagle syndrome with atypical symptoms of hypoglossal nerve palsy and Horner syndrome. RESULTS: A 56-year-old woman presented with right hypoglossal nerve palsy, right Horner syndrome, right neck pain, and symptoms mimicking transient cerebral ischemia. An angioscan showed elongated styloid process bilaterally with the right process compressing the right carotid artery causing a 75% stenosis. After an en bloc resection of the right styloid process, there were no further episodes of paresthesias. The neck pain completely disappeared, as well as the Horner syndrome. As for the hemitongue, the fasciculations disappeared but the atrophy remained. CONCLUSION: This is the first Eagle syndrome case report describing a motor paralysis of a cranial nerve.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
