咽鼓管扩张综合征以前被认为是一种麻烦但良性的疾病。这里报告的 13 名患者中有 9 名有证据表明耳蜗受到类似于声损伤造成的损伤。这些患者也有前庭症状，经过扩张管治疗后有所改善。据推测，咽鼓管的异常通畅可能会导致中耳压力发生过度变化，这种变化可能通过异常的听骨运动传播到耳蜗。使用输尿管透热探针进行咽鼓管透热疗法是治疗这种情况的安全有效的方法。
The patulous Eustachian tube syndrome has previously been regarded as a troublesome but benign condition. Nine out of 13 patients reported here had evidence of cochlear damage similar to that caused by acoustic trauma. These patients also had vestibular symptoms which improved with treatment of the patulous tube.It is postulated that abnormal patency of the Eustachian tube may allow excessive middle ear pressure changes to occur which may be transmitted by abnormal ossicular movement to the cochlea.Eustachian tube diathermy using a ureteric diathermy probe is a safe and effective method of treating this condition.
