Recently trials done to remove adenoid under vision either by mirror or endoscopes, also different surgical tools introduced as microdebrider, laser, suctiondiathermy and radiofrequency [ 2 ]. (scitechnol.com)
Removal of the adenoids is a day only procedure which is performed under direct vision with a telescope using a suctiondiathermy, coblator, or microdebrider depending on patient and surgical factors. (drjoannawalton.com)
Adenoid hypertrophy1
Method: 80 patient with adenoid hypertrophy planned to do adenoidectomy with age range from 1 year to 12 years were recruited in this study, divided in 2 equal groups. (scitechnol.com)
Adenotonsillectomy1
A randomized controlled trial of 80 patients planned to undergo adenoidectomy +/- insertion of tympanostomy tubes done trans-orally using bipolar radiofrequency suctiondiathermy guided by trans-oral endoscope or mono-polar suctiondiathermy guided by mirror by excluding all the adenotonsillectomy cases.

Recurrence1
Low dose prophylactic antibiotics, until maturation of immune system is preferred to adenoidectomy in these children to prevent recurrence. (drsanu.com)
The present study assessed operating room workers' exposure to chemical compounds and aerosolized particulates generated during T&A. We also investigated the effect of 3 different smoke-controlling methods: smoke-evacuator pencil cautery (SE), cautery with suction held by an assistant (SA), and cautery without suction (NS).

Tonsillectomy with cautery and suction are shown in the videos below. (medscape.com)
Tonsillectomy2
To assess the exposure of surgical personnel to known carcinogens during pediatric tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy (T&A) and compare the efficacy of surgical smoke evacuation systems during T&A. (nih.gov)
