[A new outlook on adenoid hypertrophy: adenoids or adenoid disease?].

Abstract

Hypertrophy of the pharyngeal tonsil affects functions of some organs and systems producing negative effects on physical and mental development of the child. The existing classification based of the tonsil size does not reflect the complexity of the pathological process. "Adenoid disease" is thought to be a more adequate term. A new classification of adenoid disease is proposed. Indications for conservative and surgical treatments can be well formulated with the new classification. The authors prefer adenotomy as, in their opinion, adenectomy is not safe for health.
