What Is Otitis Media And What Does It Do?
Eustachian – tube is a canal called the Eustachian tube, which is located just behind the eardrum and the middle ear cavity is filled with air under normal conditions most of the nasopharynx in the rear part of the nose (nasal) provides the connection with the region.
The average length of 3.5 cm, which is the Eustachian tube, the middle ear, partial bone on the side of 1/3, 2/3 partial nasal cartilage on the side of the structure. Not in a natural position so that narrowed down the passage of air or fluid through it, swallowing my channel with contraction during movement by opening the muscles around the middle ear and allows the passage of air between the nasal cavity.
The most important functions of the middle ear, the Eustachian tube external pressure allow to stabilize at the ambient pressure, to ensure the discharge of accumulated secretions in the middle ear and the middle ear from the side of the nose is to protect you from infection and disease.
Why Eustachian Tube Function Is Broken?
Blockage of the Eustachian tube-shaped region that holds the nasal function disorders upper respiratory tract infections, allergic reactions, sinus infections, surgery, trauma, or tumor can occur depending on the masses and especially the nasal anatomical region as due to the structural features can be traced in without any reason. Other causes of complaints caused by Eustachian tube dysfunction and treatment options to be more open than normal, which is a completely different problem for the channel (Eustachian Patuolus) it will not be covered under this title.
What Happens When The Eustachian Tube Function Is Disrupted?
Adequate function of the Eustachian tube, middle ear as a result of they've are not synchronized with the external ambient pressure when the negative pressure in the middle ear early fullness, tinnitus, ear congestion, decrease in hearing for a long time can cause symptoms such as a feeling of pressure as a result of failure to synchronize, while the middle ear, the middle ear into the withdrawal of the eardrum to the middle ear structures in adherence, following the formation of the correct types in the ear canal can result in serious and chronic otitis media.
At various levels in the ear canal middle ear effusion and chronic duct obstruction adhesions occur in patients with more serious withdrawal and more, while light-level function impairment in patients with in normal times, the problem is significantly edema and swelling of the mucous membrane of the Eustachian tube, while monitoring the complaints that cause infections, allergic reactions or external air at ambient pressure is a significant change in a short period of time, which can occur in situations such as travel or diving into the water.
What Is The Treatment For Obstruction Of The Eustachian Tube?
For reasons such as infection or allergic reaction in a short time and growing Eustachian tube dysfunction drugs that reduce swelling in the mucous membrane of nasal sprays, while generally useful, long-term drug treatment in chronic Eustachian function is often unsuccessful.
In society, the 1% is encountered in the vicinity of different levels of chronic congestion of the Eustachian although many different methods have been tried in the treatment until the present day, has not been found an effective method to lower the risk of complications and significant complaints with the purpose of balancing the air pressure in the middle ear in patients with ventilation tube placement has been the most preferred method on the ear. On the eardrum and ear ventilation tubes punctures in the membrane remain for a long time, while permanent, arthritis, infections, and permanent water due to the necessity of protection from deterioration in the quality of life of patients with causes.
Balloon Tuboplasti How?
Which has been implemented in the recent past, “expanding the Eustachian tube with a balloon” technique in patients with chronic Eustachian tube obstruction gives very good results. In this technique, the Eustachian canal from the mouth through the nose with a nasal endoscopy with a special catheter inserted on the side after the balloon on the catheter and the canal structure in the portion of the cartilage of the channel are inflated as a result of the expansion of a long-term improvement in function can be achieved.
Appropriate patients, the operation is usually performed under general anesthesia with balloon expansion implemented as extremely safe and the whole process lasts around 15-20 minutes for both sides.
The Eustachian Tube Can Be Applied In Expanding?
Depending on the chronic dysfunction of the Eustachian tube, the middle ear, fluid in the middle ear slump, types, and structures of the middle ear, Eustachian tube function due to the lack of patients with problems such as adhesion, especially for air travel or scuba-diving support during a drug, despite that not synchronized fluid in the middle ear middle ear infection, bleeding or severe pain, patients with problems “of the Eustachian tube in a balloon expansion” are good candidates for the process.
Balloon expansion, especially for a short time before the operation was performed in patients with complaints'ada ear, sinuses, nose and nasal region, originating from infection, allergy, tumor, such as the presence of a pathology that may affect the function of the Eustachian tube should be investigated.
Balloon tuboplasti process due to Eustachian tube dysfunction, middle ear infections and fluid buildup in the middle ear or in the ear canal can be applied with success in children with problems such as the collapse.
