Endoscopic transtympanic Eustachian tube dilatation: An overview of evaluation methods and dilatation technique

Endoscopic technique in patients undergoing chronic ear surgery allows visualization of protympanic (proximal) segment of the Eustachian tube (ET). The proximal cartilaginous ET is a common site of anatomical Obstruction in chronic otitis media and it is this proximal end of ET that is being observe...
