“…Among 250 patients, a slight predominance of men (53.2%) over women (46.8%) was observed. The majority of the cases were children (94.4%) presenting recurrent tonsillitis associated with hypertrophy of palatine and pharyngeal tonsils (69.6%), which is in accordance with the literature worldwide 3 , which may be consistent, considering that microorganisms growth could stimulate proliferation of lymphoid elements 12 . Only 9 patients (3.6%) had grade I tonsils, although presenting recurrent tonsillitis.…”
