- Abstract
Background: In this study; we aimed to evaluate the prevalence, clinical and radiographic findings of elongated SP and ES in Eastern Aegean Turkish society. Material and Methods: Recordings of 3678 patients over 18 years of age were examined who admitted to Afyon Kocatepe University, Faculty of Dentistry, between July 1 and December 31, 2014. Length, elongation type, calcification shape, single or double sided appearance of SP and clinical findings were recorded. Results: In 258 patients (112 male, 146 female), SP were found to be elongated (7.01%). In 9 patients (3 male, 6 female) (0.24%), symptoms were considered as ES. There were no significant differences in terms of age and sex with the elongated styloid process (p>0.05). Conclusions: The elongation of the SP may cause a variety of clinical symptoms. This situation may be confused with the diagnosis of many other clinical problems. Elongated SP or ES which can be detected in PR should also be considered for consultation with the ear-nose-throat clinic.
