Middle Ear Procedure for Fluid Drainage

The provider makes a small incision in the eardrum (myringotomy); the provider may suck fluid from the middle ear (aspiration) and/or inject air through a tube or catheter placed through the tympanotomy to inflate the eustachian tube (ET) to treat ET dysfunction or otitis media.
