Question
How should surgery be performed for a child with enlarged adenoids?
Answer
Since snoring can affect a child’s growth and development, it is recommended to treat enlarged adenoids early. Traditional surgical treatment may cause significant harm to children, while medication treatment has issues such as long treatment time and drug dependence. Therefore, the “H-UPPP procedure” is a better choice. This technique uses low-temperature treatment, causes minimal mucosal damage, has a quick recovery, and produces good results. Most cases do not require hospitalization. This surgery is minimally invasive and has a minimal impact on children.
