Ambulatory adult tonsillectomy.
The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate whether it is reasonable to perform tonsillectomies on adults on an ambulatory basis. The method was a retrospective hospital chart review of all 383 patients operated on by one surgeon over a sequential 10-year period. The findings were a low admission rate of 7.05%, no serious complications, and excellent acceptance by patients, surgeon, and other involved health care providers. The conclusion is that ambulatory adult tonsillectomy is safe, cost-effective, and convenient.

Epistaxis.
Epistaxis is discussed. Three unusual cases are reported. The first was a patient with a basal skull fracture due to a motor vehicle accident. He developed a carotid-cavernous fistula causing epistaxis severe enough to cause a cardiac arrest on one of his bouts of severe bleeding. The second was an unusual complication of a rhinoplasty due to damage to the anterior ethmoidal artery from the medial osteotomy. The third was due to psychopathology causing an adult female to traumatize her nose as an attention-getting or defence mechanism causing epistaxis with anemia requiring bi-annual blood transfusions of more than 175 units of blood over a 20 year period. Management is described.
