11/01/1994 - "Herein, we present a single case of a pediatric patient with otitis media with effusion and manometrically proven active and passive Eustachian tube obstruction which was relieved by adenoidectomy. "
09/01/2001 - "Our findings demonstrate that both adenoidectomy and adenotonsillectomy are effective for the treatment of persistent otitis media with effusion, and they confirm the findings of other studies. "
10/15/1998 - "Adenoidectomy has been demonstrated in randomized controlled studies to be effective in the prevention of otitis media with effusion (OME). "
05/01/1985 - "To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of current treatments of chronic secretory otitis media, the authors undertook a randomized clinical trial with four treatment arms: myringotomy alone, tympanostomy tubes, adenoidectomy and myringotomy, and the combination of adenoidectomy and tympanostomy tubes. "
05/01/1994 - "The efficacy of adenoidectomy in the surgical treatment of children with otitis media with effusion (OME) persisting after adequate medical therapy has been established in three independent randomized clinical trials. "

10/01/2008 - "All studies showed that sinusitis symptoms or outcomes improved in half or more patients after adenoidectomy. "
05/01/1989 - "Overall, adenoidectomy appeared effective in reducing the incidence of OME and sinusitis, and in improving the active ventilatory function of the ET without causing changes in the tubal passage. "
01/01/1988 - "In addition, adenoidectomy improved nasal sinusitis, and in such patients, their active tubal function was satisfactory. "
06/01/2008 - "Adenoidectomy is effective treatment for sinusitis in children."
01/01/1997 - "These findings may indicate that adenoidectomy is effective for sinusitis in children."

01/01/2012 - "Tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy improved physical symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea in the patient."
03/01/2007 - "Adenoidectomy was performed following which obstructive sleep apnea symptoms disappeared and his cardiac status improved markedly. "
02/01/2006 - "To evaluate the efficacy of tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy (T & A) in Asian childhood obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). "
02/01/2006 - "Efficacy of tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy in Asian childhood obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome: a case control study."
07/01/2004 - "To determine whether children with a clinical assessment suggestive of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) but with negative polysomnography (PSG) have improvement in their clinical assessment score after tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy (T&A) as compared with similar children who do not undergo surgery. "

04/01/2005 - "Endoscopic-assisted transnasal adenoidectomy using power system is the best approach of choice in the management of adenoid hypertrophy. "
10/01/2004 - "Although adenoidectomy is the only effective treatment for adenoid hypertrophy, it is rarely performed in infants less than 1 year old. "
03/01/2012 - "The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of endoscopic nasopharyngeal exploration at the end of curettage adenoidectomy on decreasing the incidence of adenoid re-hypertrophy. "
06/01/2015 - "A total of 277 children (151 males and 126 females; median age 5.5 years), with adenoidal hypertrophy requiring adenoidectomy and or adeno-tonsillectomy, were consecutively enrolled in the study. "
12/01/2014 - "In the present study we will compare the conventional curettage adenoidectomy with endoscopically assisted adenoidectomy done with microdebrider in 40 pediatric patients of adenoid hypertrophy. "
