Here its physiology and pathophysiology are reviewed, and the possibilities of influencing Eustachian tube function, and the recent developments in the field are covered in detail. The biomechanics of the reconstructed sound conduction apparatus: Here the numerous factors that determine the functional outcome of middle ear reconstruction are explained in detail.

In this chapter, numerous technical refinements are presented, giving special attention to improved instrumentation and various laser techniques.
