An adenoidectomy, or adenoid removal, is surgery to remove the adenoid glands. While adenoids help protect the body from viruses and bacteria, they sometimes become swollen and enlarged or chronically infected. This can be due to infections, allergies, or other reasons.

Instructions

How is adenoidectomy performed?

The surgeon places a small tool into your child's mouth to keep it open. The surgeon removes the adenoid glands using a spoon-shaped tool (curette). Or, another tool that helps cut away soft tissue is used. Some surgeons use electricity to heat the tissue, remove it, and stop bleeding.
