Abstract: Objective To investigate the effectiveness of harmonic scalpel assisted adenotonsillectomy in the treatment of children with obstructive sleep apnea and hyponea syndrome(OSAHS). Method 38 cases of children with OSAHS were randomly divided into ultrasonic scalpel group (group A, 18 cases) and control group (group B, 20 cases). The adenotonsillectomy was operated with harmonic scalpel in group A, but without in group B. The blood loss, the operation time, postoperative pain, the condition of wounds were compared between the two groups. Results The operative blood loss, operation time, incidence of postoperative hemorrhage of the group A were much less than those of the group B, while no difference in postoperative pain and condition of wounds were noted between the two groups. Conclusion The application of harmonic scalpel in adenotonsillectomy for children with OSAHS is safe, efficient and feasible.
