“…In conditions of repeated inflammation, there is an increased risk of retraction, adhesion, and perforation of the tympanic membrane, in the process of cholesteatoma formation. 12 This study found that the narrow diameter of the Eustachian tube caused more abnormalities in the tympanic cavity compared to the wide diameter of the Eustachian tube. This was in accordance with Shan et al 5 , that narrower diameter of the Eustachian tube causes more abnormalities of the tympanic cavity than wider diameter.…”

Socioeconomic factors also have a strong impact on the pathogenesis of the disease involving lowincome families, residency in rural areas, low level of parents' education, lack of hygiene, overcrowded housing, living in nuclear families, and exposure to passive smoking.…”
