Adenoidectomy Medical Program by Minimally Invasive Technique
The adenoids function as part of the body's immune system, filtering the germs that try to invade the body and help develop antibodies against germs.
During the first years of life adenoids are key to the development of the child, but over the years once the immune system has been completed adenoids become less important.
Surgical intervention to remove adenoids is called adenoidectomy. The adenoids are located just behind the nose, inside the face.
When the inflammation of the adenoids is very large, it can clog the passage of air from the nostril to the larynx.
When this occurs, there may be complications, such as otitis, upper respiratory tract infections, bronchitis, nocturnal noisy breathing (snoring), etc. In these cases the operation of adenoids is indicated.
Surgery of the adenoids is short hospital stay, so most of the time require a day of admission.
The surgical technique used to remove the adenoids is done through the mouth, usually under general anesthesia.
Adenoidectomy is the surgical procedure in which the adenoids, also called pharyngeal tonsils, are resected.
