OBJECTIVE: To compare the presentation and outcomes of patients with and without obstructive eustachian tube dysfunction (oETD) undergoing repair of lateral skull base spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (sCSF) leaks.
STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective chart review.
SETTING: Tertiary referral center.
PATIENTS: Adults with lateral skull base sCSF leaks who underwent repairs from January 1, 2011, to December 31, 2020, were collected.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Comparative statistics and effect sizes were used to compare clinical features, operative findings, and outcomes between groups.
RESULTS: Of 92 ears from 89 patients included, 51.1% (n = 47) had oETD. There were no differences in demographics between patients with and without oETD. Mean age was 60.7 ± 13.1 versus 58.5 ± 12.8 years ( d = -0.17 [-0.58 to 0.24]), mean body mass index was 33.8 ± 8.5 versus 36.0 ± 8.0 kg/m 2 ( d = 0.27 [-0.14 to 0.68]), and female sex preponderance was 59.6% (n = 28) versus 68.8% (n = 31; Φ = -0.09), respectively. There were no differences in the radiologic number, size, and locations of defects. Patients with oETD had less pneumatized mastoids than those without oETD ( p = 0.001; Φ = 0.43). Mean change from preoperative to postoperative air pure-tone average for those with and without oETD was -1.1 ± 12.6 versus 0.1 ± 17.2 dB ( d = 0.09 [-0.04 to 0.58]), respectively. Six ears (6.5%; three with and three without oETD) underwent revisions for rhinorrhea/otorrhea between 5 and 28 months postoperatively, during which four leaks were found, the two patients without leaks had oETD.
CONCLUSIONS: The presentation of sCSF leaks and outcomes of repairs in patients with oETD do not differ from those without oETD. Although postoperative otorrhea might represent an inflammatory or infectious process in patients with oETD, reexploration is warranted if patients do not improve with conservative treatment.
