Hard to guess without more context. Maybe there is effusion present in one ear. It could also refer to air-fluid level in the sinuses, see e.g. http://www.medcyclopaedia.com/library/topics/volume_vi_2/a/a...

Search "air-fluid level in the" to see examples for other parts of the body, too. In any case, "fluid level" or "air-fluid level" should work for whatever they are talking about (an air-fluid level is present...) |
