Abstract

We have here studied the relationship between Eustachian tube dysfunction and laryngopharyngeal reflux, evaluating also the results of medical therapy in patients with such problems. Based on clinical, endoscopic and cytological investigations, we found that acid laryngopharyngeal reflux was the basis of audiological symptoms and chronic dysfunction of the Eustachian tube.
