Complicações pós-operatórias em tonsilectomias

Abstract: Post-operatory complications in adenotonsillectomyResumo / SummaryAdenoi dectomia e amigdalectomia são as cirurgias mais freqüentemente realizadas na prática otorrinolaringológica diária. Em geral, são procedimentos seguros, que não requerem internação prolongada.

“…Both had a very satisfactory hemorrhage rate, particularly when we compared these trials with a third study within the Brazilian context, where the rate of immediate postoperative bleeding was 7.48%. 8 Reduced waiting lines, the improved quality of life of our patients, the satisfaction of their parents in having obtained a solution for their children's health problem, and the low rate of surgical complications should help to encourage our otorhinolaryngological colleagues to undertake similar joint efforts. The issue of waiting lines for adenotonsillectomies is a public health problem with a feasible solution: joint efforts!…”

“…Las reportadas con mayor frecuencia corresponden a sangrado de la herida operatoria, broncoespasmo, hiperemesis y fiebre 7,9,10 . Dado que éstas ocurren generalmente en las primeras 6 horas del posoperatorio 8 se recomienda dar de alta después de este período de tiempo 11 . Al desarrollar la CMA, se logra establecer un modelo de gestión eficiente que facilita el acceso del usuario al sistema y su posterior resolución quirúrgica 4 , ofreciendo una prestación de alta calidad con una relación costo/beneficio más favorable.…”
