What is adenoidectomy?
Adenoidectomy surgery involves removing infected, inflamed, or enlarged adenoid glands. Adenoid glands are small pads of immune tissues that are important parts of the immune system in kids. As they grow, though, their function decreases, and eventually, they begin to degenerate.
In some cases, however, instead of degenerating, they may become infected and cause problems such as obstructive sleep apnea, snoring, postnasal drip, sore throats, etc. Generally, such problems can be managed medically, but in severe cases, surgical intervention is necessary. To treat sore throats and other throat infections, adenoidectomy is often combined with tonsillectomy.

Adenoidectomy Treatment
Diagnosis
To diagnose adenoiditis, an ENT doctor will review your medical history and perform a physical examination to determine the cause, extent, and severity. During the physical examination, the doctor will examine the throat tissues using a speculum and palpate the lymph nodes present in the throat region to check for inflammation.
In severe cases, they may also prescribe endoscopy and imaging tests such as CT scans, MRIs, etc., to determine the full extent of the infection. Next, throat swabs will be collected for tissue culture and lab examination.
Procedure
Your doctor will carefully study the results of the diagnostic tests and discuss your treatment and surgery options with you. Adenoidectomy will be planned and integrated into the treatment plan along with other surgical procedures such as tonsillectomy, FESS, septoplasty, etc.
The doctor will hold your mouth open with a retractor once you are anaesthetised and then use a curette or laser to remove the adenoids. Following the surgery, he will either use sutures or cauterizers to close the surgical incision. The entire procedure will take less than 30 minutes, and you will be taken to a recovery room for immediate postsurgical observation. Most patients are discharged the same day as the surgery.
preparation for Adenoidectomy Surgery
Make sure your ENT surgeon is aware of all the medicines you are taking and if you have any allergies. Provide your ENT surgeon with your entire medical history. You need to let them know if you have bleeding or clotting disorders so that the surgery can be planned accordingly. You may need to stop taking your blood thinners or increase the dosage of your blood clotters a couple of days before the surgery.
You should not self-medicate before or after your surgery. Medicines like aspirin and ibuprofen can adversely affect your blood clotting, causing haemorrhage. Make sure you understand all the dietary precautions you need to take before your surgery if you will be under general anaesthesia.
In addition, do not wear any perfume, jewellery, or makeup when you arrive at the hospital for surgery if you smoke or consume tobacco regularly.
