Patulous Eustachian tube dysfunction is a disorder of the valve of the Eustachian tube that causes it to remain open. When this valve remains open, sound can travel from the nasal-sinus cavity to the ears, allowing you to hear your own voice or your own breathing too loudly, or even the sound of blood pumping.
The Eustachian tube is a small passageway that connects your throat to your middle ear. When you sneeze, swallow, or yawn, your Eustachian tubes open. This keeps air pressure and fluid from building up inside your ear.Jan 8, 2020

ETD can be diagnosed through a thorough head and neck examination. The physician will look in the ears to see the eardrum and into the nasal cavity. On many occasion, a good history can diagnose the condition as well.

Presbycusis is usually a sensorineural hearing disorder. It is most commonly caused by gradual changes in the inner ear. The cumulative effects of repeated exposure to daily traffic sounds or construction work, noisy offices, equip- ment that produces noise, and loud music can cause sensorineural hearing loss.
The eustachian tube is usually closed but opens periodically when muscles contract during actions like yawning and swallowing. When the air pressure changes outside, your eustachian tube opens to allow air to move from the ear canal to the middle ear so the pressure can equalize on both sides of the eardrum.Oct 7, 2021
Myringotomy is a surgical procedure that involves creating a small incision in the eardrum to relieve pressure or drain pus from the middle ear. In many cases, tympanostomy tubes will be placed to allow fluid to pass through the ear canal into the middle ear.
A myringotomy is a procedure to create a hole in the ear drum to allow fluid that is trapped in the middle ear to drain out. The fluid may be blood, pus and/or water. In many cases, a small tube is inserted into the hole in the ear drum to help maintain drainage.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code H69.92 and a single ICD9 code, 381.9 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
The functions of the Eustachian tube are as follows2: pressure equalisation and ventilation of the middle ear, mucociliary clearance of secretions from the middle ear,
The panel agreed that Eustachian tube dysfunction is a syndrome with a constellation of signs and symptoms suggestive of dysfunction of the Eustachian tube. This does not preclude that Eustachian tube dysfunction can also be a mechanism to middle ear disease.
