“…Violaris and Tuffin [19] did not find any benefit of topical bupivacaine in decreasing post-operative analgesia in adult tonsillectomy. On the other hand, Hung et al [3] found that topical bupivacaine had some pain relieving effect in children following tonsillectomy. In Wong's study [20], peritonsiller infiltration of bupivacaine 0.5% with 1:200,000 epinephrine provided better post-tonsillectomy pain control in the immediate post-operative period than bupivacaine spray or placebo.…”
