BACKGROUND: Balloon eustachian tuboplasty (BET) is a minimally invasive surgical treatment that is effective and safe for obstructive eustachian tube dysfunction. However, BET complications include excessive widening of the eustachian tube, causing a patulous eustachian tube (PET). Herein, we report a case of PET following BET in a patient who underwent radiation therapy and reviewed the literature on considerations for reducing complications after BET.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 63-year-old woman complained of bilateral ear fullness after concurrent chemoradiation therapy for nasopharyngeal lymphoma. BET was performed on the left side because the left-sided serous otitis media persisted. A left-sided PET was performed two weeks after the BET, along with eustachian tube silicone plug insertion on the left side. The patient became asymptomatic immediately after the surgery, with no recurrence reported after a 12-month follow-up period.
CONCLUSIONS: To our knowledge, there has been no report of PET following BET in a post-radiation patient, and it was successfully treated via ET silicone plug insertion.
