Abstract:In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between sphenoid sinus pneumatization and the angle of the Eustachian tube. Methods: The study included a total of 158 patients. The Eustachian tube angle (ETA) was measured and sphenoid pneumatization was classified in the coronal plane. Results: According to the coronal classification of sphenoid pneumatization, 52 (16%) hemisphenoids were type 1, 177 (56%) hemi-sphenoids were type 2, and 87 (27.5%) hemi-sphenoids were type 3. According to the sagittal … Show more
