A Novel Method to Treat Obstructive Eustachian Tube Dysfunction in the Mucosal Type of Chronic Otitis Media

Annals of Otology and Neurotology, 2022
Abstract Introduction  Treatment of Eustachian tube dysfunction has remained an enigma for a long time. Balloon tuboplasty, even though effective, is not considered by many, as it is invasive, expensive, and cumbersome. Hence, we tried to find some simple and inexpensive solution for the same in chronic otitis media.
