Tubototid ( eustachyte, salpingitis) otolaryngologists called acute or chronic inflammation of the Eustachian tube. Eustachian( drum-pharyngeal) tube connects the nasopharynx with the drum cavity and performs ventilation, protective drainage and acoustic functions.

The protective function consists in the physiological closure of the tube during rest and in the bactericidal properties of mucus and ciliated epithelium.
