Indications for Tonsillectomy:

  • Chronic tonsillitis that does not respond to conservative treatment.
  • Frequent tonsillitis (6 or more times per year).
  • Tonsillar abscess (peritonsillar abscess).
  • Obstructive syndrome (breathing difficulties due to enlarged tonsils, snoring, sleep apnea).
  • Suspicion of an oncological process in the tonsil tissues.

Methods of Tonsil Removal:

  • Traditional Surgery – removal of the tonsils with a scalpel or scissors under general anesthesia.
  • Laser Tonsillectomy – a less traumatic method that minimizes bleeding.
  • Radiofrequency Tonsillectomy – reduces damage to surrounding tissues and promotes faster healing.
  • Coblation (Cold Plasma Tonsillectomy) – a modern technique with minimal pain and a quick recovery period.
