Several theories have been advanced to explain the formation of primary acquired or attic refraction Cholesteatomas including invagination of the pars flaccida, basal cell hyperplasia, otitis media with effusion, and perforation of the pars flaccida membrane with epithelial ingrowth. The study suggests it is the VA to be the cause of the otitis media with effusion and the attic Cholesteatomas.

The use of electro-acoustic impedance instrument to obtain a tympanogram is an excellent way for determining the status of tube function. The presence of a middle-ear effusion of high negative middle-ear press can be determined by this method. Unfortunately, assessment of the tympanograms is not simple. They always change.
