Abstract:
[Objective] To investigate the clinical efficacy of nasal endoscopic assisted by-mouth low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation for treating the children with adenoid hypertrophy.[Methods] Seventy patients with adenoid hypertrophy were divided by random digits table method into treatment group and control group with 35 cases each.The patients in control group underwent traditional by-mouth adenoidectomy,while the patients in treatment group were treated with nasal endoscopic assisted by-mouth low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation.The operative time and intraoperative blood loss in two groups were calculated.The children were followed up for 6-12 months and the clinical efficacy of snoring,nasal obstruction and hearing and the postoperative complications were observed.[Results]The intrsoperative blood loss in treatment group was significantly lower than that in control group[(2.23±0.74)ml vs.(24.58±8.19)ml](t=19.733,P ＜ 0.01).The total efficiency of snoring,nasal obstruction and hearing in treatment group was 91.4％(32/35),82.9％(29/35)and 77.1％(27/35),respectively,and which was significantly higher than that in control group[68.6％(24/35),62.9％(22/35)and 57.1％(20/35)](x2 =5.354,5.293,5.421,P＜0.01).There,was no residual adenoid and adenoidal hypertrophy recurrence in treatment group,while the postoperative residual adenoid rate in control group was 91.4％(32/35),the adenoidal hypertrophy recurrence rate was 20.0％(7/35).There was significant difference in postoperative complication incidence between two groups(x2 =9.391,P ＜ 0.01).[Conclusions] Nasal endoscopic assisted by-mouth low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation for treating the children with adenoid hypertrophy has better clinical efficacy,less intraoperative blood loss,no postoperative residual and other complications.It is an ideal method for treating the children with adenoid hypertrophy and worthy of clinical application.
