Endoscopic Adenoidectomy with Microdebrider
نویسنده
چکیده
This present study was conducted to describe endoscopic power assisted adenoidectomy and review the experience regarding safety and effectiveness. 38 patients, who under vent power assisted adenoidectomy aged between 6to 14 were included between intervals of September 2013 to march 2015. Average operated time, average blood loss complications, collateral damage, complete removal, recovery time and surgeons satisfaction were noted. Average operative time was 20 min (15 – 26 min) and average blood loss was 28 ml (range 10 – 45 ml). Better visualization with endoscope helps in complete resection of adenoids tissue with minimal complications and good surgeon satisfaction. The study parameters fared better with completeness of resection, lesser collateral damage and faster recovery time.
