Lateral Pharyngoplasty Outcomes in Children Undergoing Tonsillectomy

The goal of this treatment study is to determine if doing lateral pharyngoplasty with tonsillectomy is better for children than doing tonsillectomy alone. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do children experience less pain after surgery when lateral pharyngoplasty is performed with tonsillectomy compared to tonsillectomy alone? * Do children eat/drink better when lateral pharyngoplasty is performed with tonsillectomy compared to tonsillectomy alone? * Is there a lower risk of bleeding after tonsillectomy when lateral pharyngoplasty is performed? Researchers will compare children undergoing tonsillectomy and lateral pharyngoplasty with children undergoing tonsillectomy alone to see if the participants experience less pain, better oral intake, and less bleeding complications after surgery. Parents of participants will be asked to record pain scores and pain medications given, approximate amounts of daily oral intake, and any complications after surgery.

Intracapsular Tonsillectomy in Adults

Comparing the classical extracapsular tonsillectomy (TE) performed with electrosurgery to intracapsular approaches (SIPT) by coblation or microdebrider. The patient group is adults with recurrent or chronic tonsillitis

Application and Demonstration of Endoscope-assisted Low-temperature Plasma Radiofrequency Ablation Resection of Tonsils

Low temperature plasma radiofofency ablation of tonsil under 70° nasal endoscope can directly view the lesion area on the monitor, clearly enlarge the operating field, and has the advantages of small surgical trauma, good hemostatic effect, light postoperative pain, low probability of postoperative bleeding and quick postoperative recovery of patients, etc. It is a good surgical mode integrating surgery and teaching, and has brought great benefits to patients, and is worth promoting and applying.
