Adenoid Surgery
Adenoid Surgery (Adenoidectomy) is the surgical removal of the adenoids – lymphoid tissue located at the back of the nasal cavity. Enlarged adenoids can cause nasal obstruction, recurrent ear infections, snoring, and sleep apnea, particularly in children.
Our ENT surgeon performs adenoidectomy safely and effectively to relieve symptoms and improve quality of life.
What are Adenoids?
Adenoids are part of the immune system and help fight infections in early childhood. However, they can become chronically enlarged due to recurrent infections or allergies, causing significant nasal and ear problems. Adenoids typically shrink naturally during adolescence.
