At Medikeri’s Super Speciality ENT Centre, we perform advanced adenoidectomy procedures to relieve nasal obstruction, recurrent infections, and breathing issues in children and select adults. Our skilled ENT surgeons use the latest techniques to ensure safe, effective, and comfortable surgical outcomes.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Adenoidectomy is the surgical removal of the adenoids—lymphoid tissue located behind the nasal cavity. It is commonly recommended for patients with chronic nasal blockage, recurrent sinus infections, sleep-disordered breathing, or ear problems related to enlarged adenoids.

ANESTHESIA & PREPARATION

The procedure is done under general anesthesia. Preoperative evaluation includes a medical history review, nasal endoscopy, and imaging (if needed) to assess the size of the adenoids. Parents and patients receive detailed instructions for preparation and fasting.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUES

Adenoids are removed through the mouth using curettes or suction cautery, without any external cuts. The procedure is quick and blood loss is minimal. Gentle techniques ensure the surrounding tissue is preserved, reducing the risk of complications.

MINIMALLY INVASIVE APPROACHES

We often utilize endoscopic assistance or suction cautery techniques to enhance surgical precision and minimize tissue trauma. These modern methods reduce postoperative discomfort and accelerate recovery.

CLOSURE & RECOVERY

No stitches are necessary. Patients are observed post-surgery for a few hours and can usually go home the same day. Mild sore throat, nasal congestion, or snoring may occur temporarily.

POST-SURGICAL CARE

Recovery involves rest, hydration, and a soft diet. Medications are prescribed to manage pain and prevent infection. Avoiding strenuous activities and exposure to infections is advised during the healing period. Follow-up visits help ensure a full recovery.

CONCLUSION

At Medikeri’s Super Speciality ENT Centre, our team ensures effective adenoid removal using safe and minimally invasive techniques. We are dedicated to restoring nasal breathing and improving the overall health and well-being of our patients.
