Abstract

Background: ADENOTONSILLAR HYPERTROPHY is a common finding among children which in untreated cases may result in serious cardiopulmonary problems. There are limited studies about the effect of adentonsillectomy on pulmonary function parameters. Does ADENOTONSILLECTOMY affect on pulmonary function? This study is performed to reveal this purpose.Materials and Methods: In a pre- and post-treatment clinical trial on 39 children between 6-13 years old with indication of adentonsillectomy due to obstructive respiratory symptoms (because of prominent hypertrophy of tonsils and/or adenoid tissue), 5 main Spirometric parameters were measured before and 2 months after ADENOTONSILLECTOMY with a standard method and data were analyzed by paired Hest.Results: 39 children (56% male and 44% female) with a mean age of 8.95±1.93 were evaluated. 4 main Spirometric parameters increased: FEV1/FVC from 89.1±12.7 to 97±4.6, FEV0.5/FVC from 70.9±15.5 to 81.1±11.8, FEV25-75 from 1.9±0.6 to 2.2±0.7, MEF50 from 2±0.6 to 2.4±0.7 and an improvement were statistically significant (P<0.0001).There was no statistically significant change in FEVI/ PEFR index. Conclusion: Due to obvious changes of 4 main Spiro metric parameters, it can be deduced that ADENOTONSILLECTOMY is of effective roles in improvement of pulmonary function.
