2. Seventeen patients (28%) underwent adenoidectomy, 17 (28%) tonsilectomy and 28 (45%) adenoidectomy and tonsilectomy.

3. In 140 children, an adenoidectomy-tonsillectomy was performed, 26 underwent tonsillectomy alone and 234 adenoidectomy alone.

4. Adenotonsillectomy*, adenoidectomy, ear tube insertion

5. Adenoid removal is also called Adenoidectomy.

13. Myringotomy with insertion of T-tubes (plus adenoidectomy) may be indicated.

14. While tonsillectomy with adenoidectomy can heal up to 85% of the children, tonsillotomy with adenoidectomy can be successful in 50–93% depending on the operative technique.

15. In 70 tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy cases, restlessness was significantly diminished postoperatively.

16. Thus an indication for adenoidectomy may be seen by the orthodontist.

17. The question of which children would benefit most from an adenoidectomy remains unresolved."

18. The rate of post-adenoidectomy hemorrhage in our retrospective study was 0.23%.

19. Adenoidectomy, with or without tonsillectomy, remains as one of the most common surgical procedures.

20. The routine histological examination of adenoidectomy/tonsillectomy tissue cannot nowadays be economically justified .

21. In this study, 96 tonsillectomies and adenoidectomies were performed with disposable instruments made of a high performance polymer (Aesculap, Tuttlingen).

22. Diazepam and meperidine were compared in a double-blind study for preoperative medication in 250 children undergoing tonsillectomies and adenoidectomies.

23. PURPOSE OF THE INVESTIGATION: Tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy are the most common surgical procedures in otorhinolaryngology.

24. MAIN FINDINGS: Hemorrhage occurred in 114 patients (1.78%) after tonsillectomy and in seven patients (0.35%) after adenoidectomy.

25. Instead, Dr. Coyte recommends the removal of the adenoid glands (an adenoidectomy), in conjunction with appropriate drainage.

26. For example, we did tonsillectomies and adenoidectomies at patients’ homes on the kitchen table, with Dr Taylor doing the surgery and me doing the anesthesia.

27. Conclusively, OSAS in infants and children with hyperplasia of tonsils and adenoids can effectively be treated by adenoidectomy and tonsilectomy.

28. BASIC PROCEDURES: We performed a single-institution retrospective study of 8388 patients who underwent tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy between 1994 and 2006.

29. Adenoidectomy is the surgical removal of the adenoid for reasons which include impaired breathing through the nose, chronic infections, or recurrent earaches

30. Weights of Curetted adenoid were measured and were compared with both weights of tonsils and the rate of adenoidectomy among the tonsillectomized cases

31. Adenoid hypertrophy is a cause of chronic sinusitis and the benefits of Adenoidectomy for chronic sinusitis have been suggested by earlier uncontrolled studies

32. 1 Objective:To compare the effect of only one tonsilla ectomy and adenoidectomy with the traditional operation in children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome.

33. We do not have any consensus practiced in Germany concerning the necessity to send tissue for histopathological examination following adenoidectomy or tonsillectomy in children.

34. Conclusion: A single intravenous prophylactic dose of tropisetron effectively reduces the incidence of PONV during the first 24 postoperative hours after tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy.

35. Data concerning histories of Adenoidectomy (Ad), Tonsillectomy (T) and Appendectomy (Ap) were collected from the escorts (mainly mothers) of 2296 children 3–12 years-old.

36. Two hundred and fifty-two children, aged 2–12 yr, underwent a standardized anaesthetic opioid administration, and postoperative care after adenotonsillectomy, adenoidectomy or tonsillectomy.

37. The aim of this study was to define the frequency of surprising or clinically relevant results in histological reports following adenoidectomy and/or tonsillectomy in children.

38. There was a good correlation between the clinical and radiographic findings, although in some cases, indication for adenoidectomy, as seen from the radiographs, could not be clinically substantiated.

39. Induction of sevoflurane anesthesia with propofol for day-case adenoidectomy results in longer, but more calm, early recovery but does not delay discharge or affect recovery at home.

40. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of and possible predictive factors for postoperative hemorrhage requiring surgical revision in patients undergoing cold dissection tonsillectomy/adenoidectomy.

41. Grisel’s syndrome is known as a very rare complication of ENT surgery. It is described as non-traumatic atlantoaxial rotatory subluxation, often seen after tonsillectomy or adenoidectomy in children.

42. Fifty-two children, aged 1–3 yr, presenting for ambulatory adenoidectomy were randomly allocated to receive 3 mg·kg−1 propofoliv or sevoflurane 8% inspired concentration for induction of anesthesia.

43. Dr. Coyte emphasizes that his findings (which appear in the April 19 edition of the New England Journal of Medicine) should not be interpreted as a recommendation for the routine addition of adenoidectomies to treat children's ear infections.

44. To evaluate the antiemetic efficacy of granisetron, a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptor antagonist, on postoperative vomiting in children undergoing general anaesthesia for strabismus repair and tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy.

45. Sixty patients less than three years of age about to undergo adenoidectomy or endoscopy were divided into three groups of 20 each according to age (0-11 months, 12-23 months, 24-35 months).

46. The frequently performed determination of routine coagulation parameters (aPTT, PT, PLC) is not able to reliably identify relevant coagulation disorders or to predict the risk for postoperative hemorrhagic complications after adenoidectomy or tonsillectomy.

48. Bacteria attached to epithelial cells in mucus and cell scrapings obtained from the nasopharynx in children undergoing adenoidectomy appear rather monomorphic under the microscope, and for this reason it is not possible to identify different species.

49. Consideration should always be given to whether adenoidectomy and/or tonsillectomy are sufficient; in general, the younger the child, the more rigorously the indication for tonsillectomy is to be established, due to the risk of secondary bleeding.

50. Sixty children, one to three years, presenting for ambulatory adenoidectomy were randomly assigned in a double-blind fashion, to receive either 0.5 mg·kg−1 midazolam (Group M) or placebo (Group P)po 30 min before anesthesia.

51. In the course of adenoidectomy, the complete removal of all hyperplastic adenoid tissue, the prevention of damage to the tubai orifices and salpingo-pharyngeal folds, and perfect hemostasis cannot be obtained by classical blind curettage of the nasopharynx.

52. The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of granisetron, metoclopramide and placebo in reducing the frequencies of retching and vomiting in children who had undergone strabismus repair and tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy.

53. They were asked if they would routinely send resected tissue for histopathological examination in the case of a child, up to 10 years old, presenting with a history and a status of chronic inflammation or hyperplasia and undergoing adenoidectomy or tonsillectomy.

54. PRINCIPAL CONCLUSIONS: Our data show that whereas adenoidectomy can be safely performed as a one-day procedure, tonsillectomy complications due to postoperative hemorrhages might be avoided only if patients were to stay in hospital until postoperative day 15, which would clearly be impractical for economic, organizational and social reasons.

55. Other Treatments Adenoidectomy is not indicated in this age group for the treatment of OME due to a lack of studies to support its efficacy.7 Steroids, antihistamine-decongestants and tonsillectomy are not recommended.7 Management of Acute Otitis Media Fluctuating CHI secondary to AOM in the child less than 2 years of age is presumed to cause similar problems to that caused by OME.

56. For example, the present invention may be useful for ablation, and hemostasis of tissue in sinus surgery (e.g., chronic sinusitis or the removal of turbinates, polypectomies), collagen shrinkage, ablation, hemostasis in procedures for treating snoring, and obstructive sleep apnea (e.g., soft palate, such as the uvula, or tongue/pharynx stiffening, and midline glossectomies), for gross tissue removal, such as tonsillectomies, adenoidectomies, tracheal stenosis, vocal cord polyps, and lesions; or for the resection or ablation of facial tumors or tumor with the mouth, the pharynx such as glossectomies, laryngectomies, acoustic neuroma procedures, and nasal ablation procedures.

57. The number of ALC separations is growing (Table 27b).3 Since reporting variations may exist within individual provinces, it is important to compare the percent change within a province rather than across provinces. As well, some patients occupy an acute care bed for procedures that "may not require hospitalization" (MNRH), such as tonsillectomy/adenoidectomy (almost 18,000 separations), urinary obstruction without complications (over 12,000), adjustment disorders (over 12,000), and false labour less than three days’ stay (over 11,000) (Fig.
