Adenoidectomy is the surgery to remove the adenoids which prevent the persistent nasal obstruction or sinus infection which causes throat complications. The surgery is performed in place of the tonsillectomy. Adenoids are a mass of lymph tissue which is present behind the nasal passage. Surgery is the solution if antibiotics don’t work.

Treatment
An ENT specialist would perform a physical examination to find out the exact location of the infection. The doctor will first ask about the symptoms your child is experiencing. Then your child will receive a physical exam. The doctor will use a special mirror and insert a small, flexible telescope (known as an endoscope) through the nose to view the adenoids. In a few cases, blood tests or throat culture tests are also conducted in order to determine the nature and severity of the condition.
Adenoidectomy is performed to remove the adenoids. It is a minimally invasive procedure performed under general anesthesia with modern surgical devices. The patient will be given a mild sedative before surgery to help calm them. They will then be placed under general anesthesia. The surgery lasts no more than two hours. The surgeon places an advanced tool into a patients’ mouth to keep it open. The surgeon removes the adenoid glands using a curette or electricity to heat the tissue, remove it, and stop bleeding. The patients are allowed to go home the next day.
In Our Doctor's Word
"Most patients confuse themselves with adenoiditis and tonsillitis. This is perhaps because of similar symptoms like impaired breathing and recurrent throat infections. Adenoids with tonsils act as infection defenders by trapping germs that come in through the mouth and nose. So, when adenoids are infected, the condition is called adenoiditis and infection of tonsils is called tonsillitis.The condition cannot be cured through home remedies and surgical removal is the only best and most effective solution."

Adenoids are tiny patches of tissue present at the back of the throat. They are located right above the tonsils and help in fighting infection. They catch germs when a person becomes sick, which causes an increase in size and returns to normal when one is healthy.
Adenoids are present at birth and continue to grow until a child is between the ages of 3 and 5. Normally, they begin to shrink after around age 7 but they shrink considerably in adulthood.
If medicines, therapies or medical procedures fail to prove effective in curing the symptoms of adenoiditis, then the ENT specialist in Madurai usually recommends a surgical procedure to heal the infected person.
