Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
Background- Infectious and inflammatory diseases involving the pharynx, tonsils and adenoids accounts for a significant proportion of childhood illnesses and pediatric health care expenditures. Methods- Prospective randomized study was conducted on 50 patients of adenoid hypertrophy, aged between 6 to 12 years attending Department of Otorhinolaryngology, at M.B. Govt. Hospital, R.N.T. Medical College, Udaipur from Jan 2016 to Dec 2016. Results- In Group A the operative time for adenoid removal ranged between 10 minutes to 20 minutes with a mean of 13.48 ± 2.49 minutes. While in Group B, ranged between 20 minutes to 35 minutes with a mean of 24.64 ± 4.63 minutes. Conclusion- The endoscopic microdebrider assisted adenoidectomy fared better in relation to less intraoperative blood loss, faster compared to curette adenoidectomy.
