Update on eustachian tube dysfunction and the patulous eustachian tube

Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head and Neck Surgery, 2005
The purpose of this review is to summarize the recent knowledge on eustachian tube dysfunction and the patulous eustachian tube.A clinically useful test for eustachian tube function is still lacking. Narrowing of the isthmus alone was demonstrated to be an insufficient cause of otitis media.

Balloon Dilation of the Eustachian Tube: 12-Month Follow-up of the Randomized Controlled Trial Treatment Group

Otolaryngology Head & Neck Surgery, 2019
Objective Obstructive eustachian tube dysfunction (OETD) affects up to 5% of adults; however, available treatment strategies have limitations. It was previously reported that balloon dilation of the eustachian tube (BDET) with the eustachian tube balloon

Sinonasal risk factors for eustachian tube dysfunction: Cross‐sectional findings from NHANES 2011‐2012

International Forum of Allergy and Rhinology, 2019
Sinonasal pathology is frequently cited as a cause of eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD), despite a lack of evidence. Using a large, nationally representative sample, we investigated whether abnormal tympanometry, an objective marker of ETD, was ...

Predictors of eustachian tube dysfunction improvement and normalization after endoscopic sinus surgery

The Laryngoscope, 2019
Studies have demonstrated improvement in Eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD) symptomatology after functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS); however, factors associated with ETD symptom alteration have not been elucidated.

Eustachian Tube Bypass: Experimental Evidence for Total Eustachian Tube Substitution

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1978
Several preliminary reports have appeared in the medical literature in respect to eustachian tube substitution1–6 since Zollner7 first described his inability to open the obstructed eustachian tube. These procedures3,5,6 have the disadvantage that the distal end of the eustachian tube substitute is inaccessible by other than another operation.This ...

Does the silastic eustachian tube prosthesis improve eustachian tube function?

The Laryngoscope, 1980
AbstractThis clinical study attempts to evaluate the effectiveness of Eustachian tube function in 30 ears, 11–29 months after insertion of the Silastic® Eustachian tube prosthesis (SETP). Indications for the SETP were limited to persistent Eustachian tube dysfunction.

Posture and eustachian tube function

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1969
It has been well known for a long time that the patency of the Eusta-chian tube is affected by body position, particularly in patients with patulous tubes. The ventilatory capacity of the Eustachian tube was studied quantitatively in subjects with normal tubal function in different postures and during compression of the neck veins.

Nasogastric tube misplacement into Eustachian tube

International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology, 2003
Paediatric nasogastric tube placement can occasionally be difficult to perform. A unique case in a child is described where the tip of the nasogastric tube managed to travel via the Eustachian tube through the attic and into the mastoid cavity of the middle ear.
