Amantadine-Induced Patulous Eustachian Tubes in Parkinson’s Disease

الملخص EN

Patulous Eustachian tube (PET) is a common condition that produces symptoms of aural fullness and autophony.

We describe a Parkinson’s disease (PD) patient that experienced a reversible bilateral patulous (hyperpatent) Eustachian tube syndrome induced by treatment with amantadine hydrochloride.

The clinical features, relevant anatomy and physiology, and associated risk factors for PET are reviewed.
