Research Abstract |
The eustachian tube function was evaluated quantitatively in the rat, and then tubal opening and closing pressure was decreased by postural change and starvation. Primary cell culture of tubal epithelial and gland cells was attempted to examine the effect of the tubal mucosal secretion to the tubal function. Clinically, nasal instillation of saline was shown to be effective to patulous eustachian tube. Its mechanism is considered to be mechanical tubal closure and possible modulation of tubal secretion.
