Abstract:Background: Postoperative pain after tonsillectomy is a great problem that the ideal tonsillectomy operation should have little or no morbidity or mortality with excellent outcome. Aim of the study:To compare the outcome of postoperative pain with two different methods of tonsillectomy, conventional dissection Tonsillectomy versus CO 2 laser assisted tonsillectomy procedure. Method: Randomized clinical trial was done on 126 adult patients with chronic recurrent tonsillitis that underwent tonsillectomies operation divided into two groups. Group A (n=63) subjected to Conventional dissection tonsillectomy .Group B (n=63) subjected to CO 2 Laser assisted tonsillectomy. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between patients in both groups with regard to mean VAS for pain starting from day 0 to day 10after initiation of treatment .Mean VAS for post to nsillec to my pain in both groups revealed that at the end of day 10, pain was completely absent in both groups. Conclusion: Conventional dissection Tonsillectomy is almost similar to CO 2 Laser assisted tonsillectomy operation in post operative pain and patient's quality of life but Laser-assisted tonsillectomy has shown to have shortened in the operative time with reduces the blood loss.
