Abstract: Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of cold dissection, monopolar diathermy dissection and radiofrequency ablation in tonsillectomy. Methods Patients undergone tonsillectomy were divided into 3 groups: cold dissection + suture group(group A, n=65), unipolar electric coagulation resection group(group B, n=40), plasma radiofrequency resection group(group C, n=38). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, pain score, and postoperative albuginea of all groups were recorded and compared. Results The average operation time and intraoperative blood loss of group A, B and C were(58.8, 27.0 and 23.7)min,(34.2, 16.1 and 12.5)mL, respectively. There was significant difference in postoperative pain score 3 hour and 1 day after surgery. Conclusion Compared with cold dissection and monopolar diathermy dissection, radiofrequency ablation is more expansive, but it needs shorter operation time and causes less intraoperative bleeding and pain.

Key words: Unipolar coagulation resection, Plasma radiofrequency, Tonsillectomy
