Abstract
The middle ear ventilation tube is a drainage tube for placement through an opening formed through the tympanic membrane to drain fluid from the middle ear to the ear canal or outer ear. The middle ear ventilation tube includes a hollow, substantially cylindrical tube having axially opposed first and second open ends and a pair of diametrically opposed lateral drainage openings adjacent the first open end, thereby providing the tube with three drainage openings (the axial open first end and the two lateral openings). An annular flange is formed about the second open end and extends outwardly therefrom. In use, the tube is inserted through an opening formed through the tympanic membrane of a patient's ear so that the annular flange is positioned against the tympanic membrane within the middle ear, and the first open end and the pair of diametrically-opposed openings are positioned within the patient's car canal.
