The Effect of BET in COM

Details and patient eligibility

About

Currently, surgical treatment of patients with chronic otitis media is one of the most important treatment methods. However, the current results show that some patients with eustachian tube dysfunction can't reconstruct the gas-containing structure of the middle ear after operation.

This is a randomized controlled trial that aims to evaluate the therapeutic effect of balloon eustachian tuboplasty (BET) for the treatment in chronic otitis media (COM) with eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD). This future study will aim to address the question: Does BET gain better recovery of auditory function and lower recurrence rate in chronic otitis media with eustachian tube dysfunction?
