For more than 10 years, we have been the pioneer and market leader in Europe in Eustachian tube dilatation. Our system offers solutions that fulfill all requirements for a patient-friendly treatment of Eustachian tube dysfunction.
The Eustachian tube in adults is a narrow, tube-like connection between the pharynx and the middle ear. It is lined with respiratory epithelial tissue and consists of a long cartilaginous part on the side of the pharynx as well as a short bony part towards the eardrum. The Eustachian tube enables a pressure balance between the middle ear and throat, dissipates secretions from the middle ear to the pharynx, and protects the middle ear from germs that rise up from the throat. A complete understanding of this complex structure in reference to the function and pathological development of diseases has occupied the field of medicine for decades. At SPIGGLE & THEIS Medizintechnik GmbH, we are proud of our network of experts and our decades-long experience in this specialty field. To be able to treat ventilation issues and dysfunctions of the Eustachian tube reliably, we have developed our system, which has become a recognized treatment method in the field of medicine. Over 125,000 TubaVent® placements since its international market introduction in 2010 speak for our success.
The TubaVent® short and the TubaVent® short wide are Eustachian tube dilatation catheters, which, combined with the TubaInsert insertion device, allow a precise and straightforward application. The olive-shaped catheter tip ensures enhanced protection of the mucosa and soft anatomical structures.
