A doctor has provided 1 answer
By UPTODATE: in a 2016 randomized trial of 323 adult patients with obstructive Eustachian tube dysfunction, more patients treated with Balloon dilation of the Eustachian tube plus medical therapy demonstrated normal tympanograms than those treated with medical therapy alone (54 versus 14 percent); these results were sustained at 52 weeks.
