Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
One of my cousins is suffering from rare problem called styloid process elongation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eagle_syndrome) Doctors in Delhi (including AIIMS) said that treatment is not possible in India. The only treatment seems to be a surgery. The condition being rare, and symptoms being rarer, they might be right about not many cases reported in India. But I am still hoping to find a specialist or some super specialty hospital who would offer some more insight and possibly even do the surgery. Any pointers of where we could go?
Hello, I would suggest you to visit Mumbai and show this to Dr. Sanddep Kirtne who is known as master of these problems. He will offer you better advise whether you go for surgery or any other intervention.
