    This research aimed to determine the relationship between mineralization of the stylohyoid ligament and the characteristics of Eagle Syndrome and Aubin’s styalgia in patients treated at the Guillermo Almenara Irigoyen National Hospital in 2019. The study followed a qualitative approach, using a hypothetical-deductive method with an observational, analytical, retrospective, correlational, and cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 24 digital panoramic radiographs from patients aged 40 years and older, selected through non-probability convenience sampling. Mineralization of the stylohyoid ligament was evaluated according to the Langlais classification (elongated, pseudoarticulated, and segmented), as well as the presence of clinical manifestations associated with Eagle Syndrome and Aubin’s styalgia. The results showed a higher prevalence of the elongated type of mineralization, mainly in women over 50 years old, with a predominance of bilateral cases. However, no statistically significant relationship was found between the types of mineralization and the presence of Eagle Syndrome or Aubin’s styalgia, nor according to age or gender. It is concluded that although stylohyoid ligament mineralization is frequent, it does not constitute a determining factor for the clinical diagnosis of these pathologies in the studied population.
