Abstract:

Objective    To  investigate the tonsillectomy with monopolar cautery under general anesthesia. Methods    180 patients were divided into two groups: experimental  group A and control group B ( 90 patients per group).The experimental group was treated with monopolar cautery, while the control group was treated with conventional tonsillectomy. The operating time,hemorrhage during the operation, the condition of white membrane and postoperative pain were analyzed. Results        Compared with the control group ,the experimental group presented with less hemorrhage, shorter operating time, but longer time of white membrane (P<0.05). Conclusion    Tonsillectomy with monopolar cautery is effective and safe, with minimal invasion,few bleeding, rapid recovery and little adverse effect. It is highly recommended in the practice.
