Traditionally, the eustachian tube (ET) was resected during EETA, which often required subsequent myringotomy for inner ear drainage. Anterolateral transposition of the ET was proposed to decrease potential morbidity associated with resection. However, a comparison of resection versus transposition regarding the need for subsequent myringotomy has not been reported.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This is a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent an EETA. Patient demographics, tumor characteristics, management of ET with resection versus transposition, and need for subsequent myringotomy were collected. Analysis was performed with JMP software in standard fashion and univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis performed with a <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05 was considered significant.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Ninety\u2010one patients underwent EETA for various malignant and benign tumors. Twenty\u2010seven patients required myringotomy, with tumors of the pterygopalatine fossa accounting for the most common location (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20098). Malignant pathology had the highest myringotomy rate compared to benign tumors (48.9% vs. 10.9%, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), as did receiving postoperative radiation (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), ET resection (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), and increasing CPK class. Multivariate analysis of these variables suggests that only ET resection significantly correlated with the need for myringotomy (LR 7.97, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.005).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>ET resection during EETA can lead to ET dysfunction and require myringotomy post\u2010operatively, and patients should be counseled of this risk. Radiation treatment, malignant pathology, and CPK class, all reflecting situations where more extensive surgery was needed, were associated with the need for myringotomy on univariate analysis but did not reach significance with multivariate analysis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Level of Evidence<\/jats:title><jats:p>4 <jats:italic>Laryngoscope<\/jats:italic>, 134:1203\u20131207,
