Doctor Roy LandsbergOtolaryngologist, ENT surgeon
Specialists in the ENT department of the Top Ichilov clinic perform surgeries for adenoid and tonsil removal. These surgeries at Top Ichilov are conducted under the control of endoscopic techniques.
Adenoids are removed in cases of chronic inflammation of the adenoids, nasal breathing disorders, recurrent peritonsillar abscesses, recurrent throat diseases, and ear pain.
Methods of adenoid removal (adenomectomy):
- Electrocautery of adenoids (performed with a special loop heated to 400 degrees, which allows for the elimination of bleeding from the wound surface)
- Coblation method (a cold plasma surgery method that allows for surgical intervention with minimal damage to healthy tissues and the least blood loss)
- Surgical excision with a scalpel
Tonsil removal (tonsillectomy) is performed using traditional and new surgical techniques that reduce the risk of postoperative complications, length of hospital stay, and blood loss.
Tonsil removal is indicated in cases of unsuccessful conservative treatment of chronic tonsillitis, severe forms of chronic tonsillitis, frequent development of peritonsillar abscesses, significant enlargement of the palatine tonsils, and sleep apnea syndrome.
Methods of tonsil removal:
- Ultrasonic scalpel
- Radiofrequency ablation
- Electrocautery
- Coblation
- Microdebrider – method used for partial removal of the palatine tonsil.
- Vaporization – evaporation of tissues using a carbon laser
- Thermal welding method using an infrared laser.
- Surgical excision of pathological tissues
