The ratio of patulous Eustachian tube patients with or without defects in the anterolateral wall of the tubal valve was 1.6:1. Weight loss in the previous six months and being refractory to conservative management were significantly associated with the defect (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.035 and 0.037, respectively).
