Sažetak
The beauty of the skiers is inva- luable for millions of air travelers. A proportion of them have ENT conditions. Otic barotraumas in air transport involve usually traumatic inflammation of the middle ear caused by a pressure difference between the air in the middle ear and the external atmosphere, developing after ascent or more usually descent. This can affect passengers as well as flight attendants or pilots. This type of barotrauma is much more common in patients with allergic rhinitis (AR), due to inflammation of the membrane of the nose and especially inflammation of the orifice of the Eustachian tube. Our aim is to shine some light on the importance of prophylactic methods for patients diagnosed or suspected of having AR so that they do not suffer from middle ear barotrauma (MEB).
