OBJECTIVE To assess the effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on bleeding for pediatric adenotonsillectomy in a retrospective study, based on the common practices at 2 different tertiary care facilities. DESIGN A retrospective study. SETTING Two different tertiary care facilities. PATIENTS Children up to 16 years of age, who underwent elective adenotonsillectomy or tons...
background: tonsils and adenoids are involved in both local immunity and immune surveillance for the development of immune defense mechanisms. a number of investigators have found decreased immunoglobulin levels after adenotonsillectomy while others have failed to find significant changes. the effects of adenotonsillectomy on the cellular immunity of children have not been investigated extensiv...
OBJECTIVE To assess the effectiveness of adenotonsillectomy in children with mild symptoms of throat infections or adenotonsillar hypertrophy. DESIGN Open, randomised controlled trial. SETTING 21 general hospitals and three academic centres in the Netherlands. PARTICIPANTS 300 children aged 2-8 years requiring adenotonsillectomy. INTERVENTION Adenotonsillectomy compared with watchful wa...
UNLABELLED The hypertrophy of the palatine and pharyngeal tonsils is extremely common in children, being one of the most frequent causes of visits to otolaryngologists and such problem can impair the child's quality of life. AIM to evaluate the impact of adenotonsillectomy on the lives of children with hypertrophied tonsils. MATERIALS AND METHODS Contemporary longitudinal cohort study. A sp...
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome affects 1% to 2% of children. It is caused mainly by upper airway obstruction and manifests as snoring and sleep disturbance. Adenotonsillectomy can improve quality of life because airway obstruction occurs when both tonsils and adenoids are enlarged. We describe an 8-year-old girl with a recurrence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome caused by hypertrophy of th...
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To investigate the relationship between sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and nocturnal enuresis (NE) in children and to prospectively evaluate the effectiveness of adenotonsillectomy on resolving enuresis in indicated SDB patients with NE. METHODS We prospectively collected data from 183 children (121 males, mean age 8.17 ± 2.84 years) who underwent adenotonsillectomy to...
OBJECTIVE To establish whether the results of a 2004 trial on the effectiveness of adenotonsillectomy in children with mild to moderate symptoms of throat infection or adenotonsillar hypertrophy affected physicians' beliefs about the benefits of the operation and influenced clinical practice. DESIGN Prospective prior-posterior study. SETTING Academic research. PARTICIPANTS We evaluated be...
CASE REPORT Bacterial meningitis is a rare complication of adenotonsillectomy. We present a case of meningitis due to nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae and Streptococcus pneumoniae after adenotonsillectomy. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis patterns indicated that the oral cavity was the source of H. influenzae and S. pneumoniae isolated from the cerebrospinal fluid. BLOOD CULTURE STUDY: As bac...
OBJECTIVE Given that 30% to 40% of children have persistent obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) after adenotonsillectomy, we evaluated whether children with hypopnea-predominant OSA were more likely to have complete disease resolution after adenotonsillectomy than those with apnea-predominant disease. We also identified risk factors that might modify the relationship between disease resolution and po...
The efficacy of adenotonsillectomy for relieving obstructive sleep apnoea symptoms in children has been firmly established, but its precise effects on cardiorespiratory control are poorly understood. In 375 children enrolled in the Childhood Adenotonsillectomy Trial, randomised to undergo either adenotonsillectomy (n=194) or a strategy of watching waiting (n=181), respiratory rate, respiratory ...
