English to Italian: Balloon Dilatation of the Eustachian Tube General field: Medical
Source text - English The Eustachian tube (ET) is a narrow canal that courses from the middle ear cavity to the nasopharynx, which opens to provide ventilation to the middle ear and to equalize middle ear and ambient pressures. In this article, we refer by “Eustachian tube dysfunction” only to obstructive ET dysfunction, i.e., failure to open and ventilate the middle ear, as opposed to patulous ET dysfunction, in which there is failure of ET closure. ET dysfunction is a common medical problem with an estimated incidence of 1% in the adult population and produces symptoms of aural fullness, otalgia, tinnitus, and hearing loss, often exacerbated or precipitated by atmospheric pressure changes. Upper airway inflammation (including allergic rhinitis and chronic rhinosinusitis) commonly precipitate (episodes of) obstructive ET dysfunction. Long-lasting ET dysfunction may also result in middle ear conditions such as serous otitis media, tympanic membrane (TM) retractions, and cholesteatoma.
Translation - Italian La tromba di Eustachio è uno stretto canale di collegamento tra l'orecchio medio e il rinofaringe che si apre per fornire la ventilazione all'orecchio medio e per equilibrare la pressione dell'orecchio medio con la pressione atmosferica. Nel seguente articolo, si fa riferimento alla 'Disfunzione della tromba di Eustachio' solo in quanto disfunzione ostruttiva della tuba, ovvero, un blocco dell'apertura e della ventilazione nell'orecchio medio, piuttosto che alla Tuba Beante, in cui vi è una mancata chiusura della tromba di Eustachio. La disfunzione tubarica è una patologia medica comune con una incidenza stimata nei soggeti adulti di circa l'1% e che si manifesta con sintomi quali la sensazione di pienezza dell'orecchio, l'otalgia, il tinnito e la perdita dell'udito, spesso aggravati o scatenati dalle variazioni della pressione atmosferica. Un'infiammazione delle vie aeree superiori (la quale comprende la rinite allergica e la sinusite cronica) di solito accelera episodi di disfunzione tubarica. La disfunzione tubarica cronica può dare origine a infezioni nell'orecchio medio, come ad esempio, l'otite media sierosa, la retrazione della membrana timpanica e il colesteatoma.

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Russian and English Language and Literature;
I have a Master's Degree in Specialised Translation, which includes Subtitling, Technical and Scientific Translation and Dubbing and voice-over.
My Background: I have been interested in languages for the last 13 years when I started travelling around the world. Thanks to my Bachelor's Degree I found out about Russian literature. When I finished my Degree I lived in Moscow for one year, studying Russian. When I came back to London I enrolled in my Master's Degree. I love Subtitling and Dubbing, but Scientific and Technical Translation was definitely my favourite module.
