Tonsil and Adenoid Surgery Trabzon
Tonsil and adenoid problems, which are especially common in children, can lead to issues ranging from recurrent infections and sleep disorders to growth and developmental delays. Op. Dr. Yasemin Timurkaynak safely performs tonsillectomy (tonsil surgery) and adenoidectomy (adenoid surgery) for these problems in both pediatric and adult patients.
Why Is Tonsillectomy Performed?
- More than 5-7 recurrent tonsil infections per year
- Excessive enlargement of the tonsils, making breathing and swallowing difficult
- Sleep apnea (cessation of breathing during sleep) and severe snoring
- Tonsil stones (tonsilloliths) and bad breath
- Complications such as tonsillar abscess (peritonsillar abscess)
Why Is Adenoidectomy Performed?
- Nasal congestion and continuous mouth breathing due to adenoid hypertrophy
- Fluid accumulation in the middle ear (serous otitis) and hearing loss
- Chronic post-nasal drip and sinusitis
- Sleep disorders and impaired facial development (adenoid face)
Surgery and Aftercare
Surgeries are performed under general anesthesia. Thanks to modern techniques, the risk of bleeding is minimized. Pediatric patients are usually discharged within 24 hours. Eating soft and cold foods during the recovery process is important. Following surgery, the frequency of infections significantly decreases in children, and improvements in sleep quality, appetite, and school performance are observed.
