OBJECTIVES Coblation is operated in low temperature, so it is proposed that tonsillectomy with coblation involves less postoperative pain and allows accelerated healing of the tonsillar fossae compared with other methods involving heat driven processes. However, the results of the previous studies showed that the effect of coblation tonsillectomy has been equivocal in terms of postoperative pai...

METHODS...
متن کاملPostoperative Outcomes After Robotic Versus Abdominal Myomectomy
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Differences in postoperative outcomes comparing robotic-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy (RALM) with abdominal myomectomy (AM) have rarely been reported. The objective of this study was to compare surgical, quality-of-life, and residual fibroid outcomes after RALM and AM. METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent RALM (n = 16) were compared with AM patients (n = 23)...
