Abstract (sommario):
Objective This study was performed to compare the intraoperative and postoperative courses of coblation tonsillectomy and coblation tonsillectomy with ties in adults. Methods All patients who underwent tonsillectomy from July 2012 to September 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Intraoperative and postoperative bleeding, pain, and return to normal food intake were compared between patients who underwent coblation tonsillectomy and those who underwent coblation tonsillectomy with ties. Results Of 515 patients, 300 (58.3%) underwent coblation tonsillectomy and 215 (41.7%) underwent coblation tonsillectomy with ties. Twenty-five (4.9%) patients developed postoperative hemorrhage, 22 (88.0%) of whom had undergone coblation tonsillectomy and 3 (12.0%) of whom had undergone coblation tonsillectomy with ties. Patients who underwent coblation tonsillectomy reported less pain than those who underwent coblation tonsillectomy with ties. Patients who underwent coblation tonsillectomy with ties resumed a normal diet significantly later than those who underwent coblation tonsillectomy (10.0 ± 3.2 vs. 8.2 ± 1.9 days, respectively). Conclusion Coblation tonsillectomy is associated with less intraoperative bleeding, a shorter surgery time, less postoperative pain, and fewer days to recovery of a normal diet than is coblation tonsillectomy with ties. However, coblation tonsillectomy with ties is associated with remarkably reduced postoperative hemorrhage.

Abstract (sommario):
ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the incidence of post-operative bleeding among patients who underwent tonsillectomy alone versus tonsillectomy with fossa closure at the Victoriano Luna Medical Center from January 2015 to December 2017. Methods: Design: Retrospective Cohort Study Setting: Tertiary Military Hospital Patients: Medical records of 83 patients that underwent tonsillectomy under the Department of Otorhinolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery between January 2015 to December 2017 were retrospectively reviewed for data regarding sex, age, tonsillectomy with or without fossa closure and post-operative bleeding. Cases of tonsillectomy alone versus tonsillectomy with fossa closure were compared (particularly with respect to post-operative bleeding), tabulated and statistically analyzed using risk ratio and t-test. Results: There were 57 cases of tonsillectomy alone versus 26 cases of tonsillectomy with fossa closure. The incidence of bleeding in all cases of tonsillectomy whether tonsillectomy alone or with fossa closure was 4.8%. The incidence of bleeding was higher in cases of tonsillectomy with fossa closure at 11.5% (versus 1.8% in tonsillectomy alone). Post-operative bleeding was 0.1 times more likely to occur in patients who underwent tonsillectomy alone than those who underwent tonsillectomy with fossa closure but there was no statistically significant difference in the risk of post-operative bleeding between the two. Conclusion: Although the incidence of bleeding was higher in cases of tonsillectomy with fossa closure, our results suggest that there is no statistically significant difference in risk for postoperative bleeding between tonsillectomy alone or tonsillectomy with fossa closure.

AbstractObjective:This study aimed to compare the efficacy of diode laser, coblation and cold dissection tonsillectomy in paediatric patients.Methods:A total of 120 patients aged 10–15 years with recurrent tonsillitis were recruited. Participants were prospectively randomised to diode laser, coblation or cold dissection tonsillectomy. Operative time and blood loss were recorded. Pain was recorded on a Wong–Baker FACES®pain scale.Results:The operative time (10 ± 0.99 minutes), blood loss (20 ± 0.85 ml) and pain were significantly lower with coblation tonsillectomy than with cold dissection tonsillectomy (20 ± 1.0 minutes and 30 ± 1.0 ml;p= 0.0001) and diode laser tonsillectomy (15 ± 0.83 minutes and 25 ± 0.83 ml;p= 0.0001). Diode laser tonsillectomy had a shorter operative time (p= 0.0001) and less blood loss (p= 0.001) compared with cold dissection tonsillectomy. However, at post-operative day seven, the diode laser tonsillectomy group had significantly higher pain scores compared with the cold dissection (p= 0.042) and coblation (p= 0.04) tonsillectomy groups.Conclusion:Both coblation and diode laser tonsillectomy are associated with significantly reduced blood loss and shorter operative times compared with cold dissection tonsillectomy. However, we advocate coblation tonsillectomy because of the lower post-operative pain scores compared with diode laser and cold dissection tonsillectomy.

Abstract (sommario):
Background: Tonsillectomy is among the most common operations performed on children in the UK. Yet little was known about the socio-demographic profile of children who undergo the operation and how the recent decline in tonsillectomy rates has influenced the rates of severe acute throat infections (ATI). Many children with mild ATI disease also undergo tonsillectomy despite a lack of evidence of its benefit in this group, particularly in the longer-term. The aims of this thesis were to characterise the socio-demographic profile of children who undergo tonsillectomy and investigate the clinical impact of the operation on ATI in primary and secondary care settings. Methods: The clinical spectrum of ATI in relation to tonsillectomy was investigated using a combination of retrospective time-trend analyses and a retrospective cohort study. I analysed routine data from the Hospital Episodes Statistics and Clinical Practice Research Datalink databases to investigate secondary care and primary care settings, respectively. Results: There was a 76% increase in ATI hospital admission rates among children between 1999/2000 and 2009/10 from 107.3 to 188.4 admissions per 100,000 children, respectively. However, the majority of these children did not stay overnight and admission rates for peritonsillar abscess (PTA) remained stable. By contrast, tonsillectomy rates fluctuated over the first three years of the study period, but declined overall from 367 to 294 per 100,000 children during the same study years. In general practice, tonsillectomy only modestly reduced the frequency of subsequent ATI consultations among children with low baseline ATI consultation rates. Conclusions: There does not appear to be a relationship between trends in tonsillectomy operations and admissions for ATI or PTA at a population level, which suggests that clinicians should continue to restrict the operation to children who are more severely affected by ATI disease. Additionally, tonsillectomy does not appear to have a clinically significant benefit in reducing ATI consultations among children with mild ATI disease in the longer-term, which further supports reserving the operation for children with severe ATI disease.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical implications of a combination of a peripheral opioid, paracetamol (APAP) and ketoprofen (KTP) on the intensity of acute postoperative pain by focusing on tonsillectomy (TE) and third molar extraction. A second focus in the study was to assess the utility of the surgical ultrasonically activated scalpel (HS) technique for TE. In Study I, TE was performed on one side using the HS and on the contralateral side using a “blunt dissection technique”. The first TE study (I) demonstrated that - based on NRS pain scores during the first 10 postoperative hours - intra-operative blood loss and need for haemostasis were greater on the blunt dissection side than on the HS side. Pain scores were higher on the HS side than on the cold dissection side during the second postoperative week. Study III assessed the analgesic effect of a peripheral dose of 4 mg morphine. The peritonsillar infiltration of morphine locally did not significantly decrease pain compared to the control side. Studies (II and IV) included patients who were scheduled for third molar extraction. In Study II, patients received 1000 mg APAP or 100 mg KTP or both or a placebo to evaluate pain relief after third molar extraction. This study demonstrated that the mean sum of pain intensity differences scores up to the 1.5 h mark and the mean time to onset of pain relief at rest and on swallowing were favoured in the combination group more than in the APAP, KTP, and placebo groups. In Study IV, patients were assigned for a submucosal injection of 2 mg morphine or NaCl into either the non-inflamed (Trial I) or the inflamed (Trial II) peridental tissue, while the active control group received the same drugs in reverse order intramuscular (IM). Postoperative pain intensity at rest and on swallowing was assessed in all studies using the numerical rating scale (NRS). Pain scores in the peripheral morphine group at rest (Trials I and II) and on swallowing (Trial I) were not associated with any further pain reduction. Pain scores on swallowing during the 2–6 hours postoperative period (Trial II) were greater in the IM morphine group. HS TE was associated with decreased pain in the early postoperative period, but there was increased pain and otalgia during the second postoperative week. Locally administered peripheral morphine was not associated with any benefit during the postoperative period after TE. The multimodal analgesia combination of a single dose of KTP and APAP demonstrated the same benefit during the early postoperative period without an increase in side effects. Locally administered peripheral morphine produced significant analgesia on swallowing during the early postoperative stage in inflamed tissue after third molar extraction
Tiivistelmä Hyvä leikkauksen jälkeinen kivunhoito on yksilöllisesti suunniteltua, turvallista, helppokäyttöistä ja taloudellista. Nykyään pyritään kivunlievityksessä hyödyn-tämään eri vaikutuspaikkoihin kohdistuvia hoitoja eli multimodaalista kivun¬hoitoa. Tämän työn tarkoituksena oli selvittää eri kivunlievitysmenetelmien tehoa ja turvallisuutta kahdessa eri toimenpiteessä: nielurisojen poistoleikkauksen (TE) tai viisaudenhampaan poistoleikkauksen jälkeen. Tutkimuskokonaisuus käsittelee leikkaustekniikan (Ultraääniveitsi), lääke-ainekombinaatioiden ja perifeerisesti annostellun morfiinin vaikutusta post-operatiiviseen kipuun. Tutkimusaineisto koostuu neljästä tutkimuksesta. Kaikki työt olivat satunnaistettuja ja kaksoissokkoutettuja. Kipu mitattiin numeerista asteikolla (Numerical Rating Scale, NRS) sekä levossa että nielemisen aikana enintään 2 viikon ajan. Ultraääniveitsen käytön vaikutusta postoperatiiviseen kipuun verrattiin perinteiseen leikkaustekniikkaan. Potilailta toinen nielurisa poistettiin ultraääni¬veistä käyttäen ja toinen tylpästi irrotellen kylmiä instrumentteja käyttäen. Kipu oli perinteisellä tekniikalla leikatulla puolella voimakkaampi kuin ultraääni¬veitsellä leikatulla puolella leikkauspäivänä. Toisen leikkauksen jälkeisen viikon aikana kipu oli kuitenkin voimakkaampaa ultraääniveitsillä leikatulla puolella. Parasetamolin (APAP), ketoprofeenin (KTP) tuottamaa kivunlievitystä ja näiden yhteisvaikutusta verrattiin viisaudenhampaan poistoleikkauksen jälkeen. KTP ja APAP kombinaatio antoi tehokkaamman kivunlievityksen ja nopeamman hoitovasteen kuin kumpikaan lääke yksin annettuna. Perifeerisesti infiltroidun morfiinin vaikutusta kipuun tutkittiin TE sekä viisaudenhampaan poistoleikkauksen jälkeen. TE jälkeen toiselle puolelle infiltroitiin nielurisan taakse 4 mg morfiinia ja toiselle puolelle fysiologista suolaliuosta. Viisaudenhampaan poistoleikkauksessa paikallisesti infiltroitua 2 mg morfiinia verrattiin lihakseen annettuun samaa lääkkeeseen kahdessa eri tilanteessa, joko tulehtuneeseen tai tulehtumattomaan kudokseen annosteltuna. Paikallisesti infiltroidulla morfiinilla ei todettu kipua lievittävää vaikutusta TE jälkeen. Tulehtuneeseen kudokseen infiltroitu morfiini lievensi leikkauksen jälkeistä nielemiskipua 2–6 tuntia leikkauksesta. Tulehtumattomaan kudokseen infiltroidulla morfiinilla ei saatu lisäetua. Yhteenvetona voidaan todeta, että TE ja viisaudenhampaanpoistoleikkauksen jälkeen kivunhoitoa voidaan optimoida multimodaalisin kivunhoidon keinoin. Tutkimustulokset auttavat potilaskohtaisen yksilöllisen kivunhoidon suunnittelussa

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract Recurrent pharyngitis causes doctor visits, antibiotics use and absences from school or work and thus worsens patients’ quality of life (QOL). Even though tonsillectomy is often performed for recurrent pharyngitis, there is limited evidence of the tonsillectomy benefit concerning both researcher- and patient-recorded outcomes. The intent of this work was to find out if tonsillectomy reduces numbers of pharyngitis episodes or symptom days, if tonsillectomy improves patients’ QOL and if there are any clinical factors predicting QOL benefit after tonsillectomy. Seventy adult patients with recurrent streptococcal pharyngitis (2001–2005) and 86 patients with recurrent pharyngitis of any origin (2007–2010) were enrolled for two randomised controlled trials. Patients with recurrent pharyngitis of any origin were followed up either before (control group, n=40) or after (tonsillectomy group, n=46) tonsillectomy. At five months of follow-up, 17 (43%) patients in the control group and 2 (4%) patients in the tonsillectomy group consulted a physician for pharyngitis. Thirty-two (80%) patients in the control group and 18 (39%) patients in the tonsillectomy group experienced any kind of pharyngitis episode. Only one episode was considered severe. The numbers of days with throat pain and fever were significantly lower in the tonsillectomy group. QOL of 142 responders measured by Glasgow Benefit Inventory (GBI) six months after tonsillectomy showed improvement: median GBI total score was +27. However, GBI total scores varied considerably between the patients (range −19 to +69). Only one patient reported declined QOL. The number of prior pharyngitis episodes, frequent throat pain, untreated dental caries and chronically infected tonsils were the best clinical factors predicting QOL improvement. The precision of these predictions was still quite low. The results of this work suggest that tonsillectomy reduces numbers of acute pharyngitis episodes and symptoms. Although most of the episodes are not severe, tonsillectomy still generally improves patients’ QOL. The distribution of QOL benefit is broad, however. Throat-related morbidity before tonsillectomy is the only clinical factor that was associated with patient satisfaction
Tiivistelmä Toistuvat nielutulehdukset aiheuttavat paljon lääkärikäyntejä, antibioottihoitoja sekä poissaoloja töistä tai opinnoista ja huonontavat potilaiden elämänlaatua. Toistuvien nielutulehdusten vuoksi päädytään usein nielurisaleikkaukseen, vaikka tutkimusnäyttö leikkauksen hyödystä on vähäistä. Tämän väitöskirjatyön tavoitteena oli tutkia, vähentääkö nielurisaleikkaus nielutulehdusten määrää tai oireita sekä selvittää leikkauksenjälkeistä elämänlaatua ja siihen liittyviä ennustekijöitä. Tutkimusaineisto koostui kahta eri satunnaistettua kliinistä koetta varten rekrytoiduista potilaista: 70 potilasta, joiden toistuvien nielutulehdusten aiheuttaja oli A-ryhmän streptokokki (2001–2005) ja 86 potilasta, joiden toistuvien nielutulehdusten etiologialle ei asetettu vaatimuksia (2007–2010). Potilaat, joilla nielutulehdusten etiologia oli avoin, satunnaistettiin kahteen ryhmään: kontrolliryhmää (n=40) seurattiin ennen nielurisaleikkausta ja leikkausryhmää (n=46) sen jälkeen, molempia 5 kuukauden ajan. Seurannassa 17 (43 %) kontrolliryhmän potilasta ja 2 (4 %) leikkausryhmän potilasta hakeutui lääkäriin nielutulehduksen vuoksi. Kontrolliryhmän potilaista 32 (80 %) ja leikkausryhmän potilaista 18 (39 %) sairasti nielutulehduksen vähintään kerran. Vain yksi episodi luokiteltiin vaikeaksi. Nielukipu- ja kuumepäiviä oli merkittävästi vähemmän leikkausryhmässä. Nielurisaleikkauksen vaikutusta elämänlaatuun tutkittiin Glasgow Benefit Inventory (GBI) -kyselyllä kuusi kuukautta leikkauksen jälkeen. Yhteensä 142 potilasta vastasi kyselyyn. GBI:n mediaanitulos +27 osoitti leikkauksen parantavan elämänlaatua. GBI-tulokset kuitenkin vaihtelivat huomattavasti potilaiden välillä (−19 – +67), vaikkakin vain yksi potilas raportoi elämänlaatunsa heikentyneen. Aiempien nielutulehdusten määrä, usein toistuva nielukipu, hoitamaton karies ja kroonisesti tulehtuneet nielurisat ennustivat parhaiten potilastyytyväisyyttä leikkauksen jälkeen, mutta näidenkin tekijöiden ennustearvo oli melko heikko. Tulosten perusteella nielurisaleikkaus vähentää akuutteja nielutulehduksia sekä oirepäiviä. Vaikka sairastamisjaksot ovat harvoin vaikeaoireisia, leikkaus parantaa useimmiten elämänlaatua, mutta hyödyn määrä vaihtelee merkittävästi potilaiden välillä. Ainoastaan leikkausta edeltävä nielun oireilun määrä ennustaa leikkaushyötyä jossain määrin

Abstract (sommario):
Background. Adeno-/tonsillectomy is a commonly performed procedure with internationally standardised and recognised indications. Despite this, there exists considerable international (190 - 850/100 000 people ≤19 years of age) and regional variation in adeno-/tonsillectomy rates. This variation has been ascribed to differences in clinical practice and referral patterns, as well as social and family factors, rather than differences in clinical need or regional morbidity. Objectives. To describe the adeno-/tonsillectomy rate in the South African private healthcare sector, and regional variations thereof. To compare local rates with international rates and to assess current trends in adeno-/tonsillectomy clinical practice. Methods. Analysis of adeno-/tonsillectomy data from January 2012 to December 2013, provided by the largest South African private healthcare funder, accounting for 31% of the medical scheme market. Rates are expressed per 100 000 people ≤19 years of age. Results. The tonsillectomy rate in the South African private healthcare sector was 1888/100 000 people ≤19 years of age in 2012. In 2013, the rate dropped significantly (p-value <0.001) to 1755/100 000. Both are more than double the highest national tonsillectomy rate reported in the literature. There was also considerable regional variation in the adeno-/tonsillectomy rate within South Africa. Otorhinolaryngologists are responsible for approximately 80% of adeno- /tonsillectomies performed in the South African private healthcare sector. Discussion. The South African tonsillectomy rate is very high when compared to international trends and varies regionally within the country. The literature does not support an increased burden of disease as the reason behind this. Rather, it is differences in training and clinical practice of clinicians, as well as social and family factors that have been implicated. Conclusion. The adeno-/tonsillectomy rate in the South African private healthcare sector is substantially higher than international norms. The reasons for this discrepancy require further consideration and investigation.

Abstract (sommario):
Thesis (M Med(Otorhinolaryngology)) -- University of Limpopo, 2011.
Background: Tonsillectomy is one of the commonest operations performed by ENT surgeons. Pain, haemorrhage, delayed feeding and resumption of normal activities are common morbidities. Different groups of analgesics are used to reduce these morbidities. Objective: We examined the effectiveness of the use of three analgesics, some in combinations in reducing these morbidities. The primary outcome measures were pain, resumption of normal diet, resumption of normal physical activities and secondary haemorrhage. The secondary outcome was comparison of pain profile of children and adults. Methods: A prospective randomized double blind controlled study. Subjects were recruited and randomized into three study groups; group A (Paracetamol & Ibuprofen), group B (Ibuprofen) and group C (Paracetamol, Ibuprofen & Tilidine). A diathermy dissection technique was used on all patients in removing tonsils. Pain was measured using a patient morbidity scoring form (PMS) as well as the Smiley scale. The care givers for children and adult patients recorded all other events. Results: Sixty five patients were recruited, 30 were in group A, 20 in group B and 15 in group C. There were 36 females and 29 males. The youngest patient was 4 years of age and the oldest was 38 years. The mean number of days prior to resuming normal daily activities for groups A, B and C was 9.27, 10.60 and 7.67 respectively. Group C patients started their daily activities earlier than those in group B (p≤0.05). The average number of days to stop analgesic use was 12.3, 13.3 and 10.6 for groups A, B and C respectively. Patients in group C stopped using analgesics earlier than group B patients (p≤0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in PMS scores, resumption of normal diet, post-tonsillectomy haemorrhage as well as pain profiles of adults and children. Conclusion: Paracetamol-ibuprofen-tilidine combination appears to be more effective than either paracetamol-ibuprofen combination or ibuprofen in the first two weeks in the treatment of post tonsillectomy pain (p>0.05), however, further studies will have to be carried out to confirm this. Patients treated with a paracetamol-ibuprofen-tilidine combination appear to stop medication and return to their normal daily activities much earlier (p ≤ 0.05). Minor haemorrhage from the use of ibuprofen following tonsillectomy was not a cause for concern.
