title: Audible sphenoid-sellar fistula: An unusual complication of transphenoidal surgery.
abstract: Eustachian tube problems are relatively common complaints to otolaryngologists' offices. However, clinicians should consider other possibilities when traditional therapies fail to improve symptoms. We present a previously not described case of sphenoid-sellar fistula after transphenoidal surgery causing objective and subjective clicking. Laryngoscope, 126:E314-E316, 2016.
