Comparing partial and total adenoid removal for symptom relief and recurrence rates
Endoscopic Partial Adenoidectomy Versus Total Adenoidectomy Regarding Rate of Recurrence and Relief of Symptoms
NA · Assiut University · NCT06169384
This study tests whether removing part or all of the adenoids helps people with breathing problems feel better and have fewer symptoms come back.

What this trial studies
This study evaluates the effectiveness of partial adenoidectomy compared to total adenoidectomy in patients suffering from adenoidal hypertrophy that causes airway obstruction. The focus is on measuring the rates of recurrence of symptoms and the relief of nasal obstruction following the procedures. Patients will undergo endoscopic adenoidectomy, and outcomes will be assessed to determine which surgical approach yields better results. The study aims to provide insights into the optimal surgical intervention for this common condition.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are children with adenoid hypertrophy causing airway obstruction.
Not a fit: Patients with cleft palate, craniofacial abnormalities, or other systemic medical issues may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved surgical outcomes and reduced recurrence rates for patients with adenoidal hypertrophy.
How similar studies have performed: Previous studies have explored adenoidectomy techniques, but this specific comparison of partial versus total adenoidectomy is less common, making it a potentially novel approach.
