Mechanism of Eustachian Tube Balloon Dilation in Minipigs
Eustachian tube injury was caused by mechanical force against the Eustachian tube wall and included limited stripping of the mucosa, compression and fragmentation of submucosal tissues, and localized linear tearing of the tube wall. The process of pathological repair was initiated immediately after dilation, and the damaged Eustachian tube regained its normal structure and function in about 4 weeks.
