Laser tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy.
The use of the laser for performing tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy has proved to be a very effective method in terms of reducing postoperative pain, bleeding, and operative time. With use of the laser, most patients can be treated on an outpatient basis. However, the treating physician must balance the medical gains against the increase in cost for laser use before embarking on this approach for patient care.
