About this study

Official title: Comparison of Endoscope-Assisted Coblation Adenoidectomy to Conventional Curettage Adenoidectomy in Terms of Postoperative Evaluation of Middle Ear Pressure

Is to evaluate the effect on Eustachian Tube (ET) and changes in middle ear pressure in early period after adenoidectomy by using Endoscopic Assisted Coblation Adenoidectomy (EACA) VS Conventional Curettage Adenoidectomy (CCA)

Read the detailed description

Adenoid hypertrophy is a common condition in children causing symptoms such as mouth breathing, nasal discharge, snoring, sleep apnea, and hypo nasal speech. It also plays a role in the pathogenesis of rhinosinusitis, recurrent otitis media, and otitis media with effusion. Currently, adenoidectomy is one of the most commonly performed pediatric surgical procedures worldwide. Although there is still poor evidence in the literature, recurrent upper respiratory infections, otitis media with effusion, and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome are considered to be the main indications of adenoidectomy . Conventional curettage adenoidectomy (CCA) is a widely adopted method for over a hundred years. Conventional curettage adenoidectomy is performed blindly via adenoid curette; this may be associated with residual adenoid tissue existence and increased postoperative morbidity including, Eustachian tube dysfunction, inadvertent injury to peripheral tissue and postoperative bleeding . An ideal adenoidectomy technique should be safe, quick, easy, and provide decreased postoperative complication and morbidity .Recently Adenoidectomy can be carried out with several techniques such as electrocautery, bipolar coagulation, radiofrequency ablation, and coblation techniques .

Eustachian tube dis function (ETD) can develop due to surgical trauma , edema in surrounding tissues and clots in early period following adenoidectomy surgery performed with curettage technique .

Being tested
Adenoidectomy with endoscopic assisted coblation (EACA) and Adenoidectomy with conventional curettage (CCA)

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Adenoidectomy with endoscopic assisted coblation (EACA) and Adenoidectomy with conventional curettage (CCA)Procedure or surgery

    IN the (EACA) group slight head flexion position will be given to the patients and Boyle-Davis retractor will be placed to keep the mouth open. The soft palate will be elevated upward by inserting a plastic feeding catheter.. IN the (CCA) group, by orotracheal intubation , Boyle-Davis mouth retractor will be used to provide mouth opening
