Evaluation of the Effects of Adenoidectomy and Adenotonsillectomy on Voice in Children

Sponsor: Gaziosmanpasa Research and Education Hospital

Summary

This prospective study aims to evaluate the effects of adenoidectomy and adenotonsillectomy on voice and speech functions in children. Changes in voice quality and resonance may occur after the removal of adenoid and tonsillar tissues, particularly in pediatric patients with enlarged adenoids or tonsils. Objective voice assessments, including acoustic, aerodynamic, and nasalance measurements, as well as subjective voice-related quality of life questionnaires, will be performed before surgery and at the first and third months after surgery. The results of this study are expected to help clinicians better inform families about possible voice changes following adenoidectomy and adenotonsillectomy procedures.
