“…Antibiotics are generally not sufficient modes of treatment for adenoid hypertrophy, as many infections are characterized by highly resistant bacteria that do not respond to many groups of antibiotics [74,75]. Additionally, many viruses are often associated with adenoid hypertrophy, including human bocavirus [76,77], EBV, and polymoviruses [76].…”

Purpose of Review Review the current state of the adenoidectomy procedure in the pediatric population with up-to-date indications for surgery, operative techniques, adverse events, non-surgical management of adenoid hypertrophy, and future directions. Recent Findings Adenoidectomy is indicated in children for the treatment of sleep-disordered breathing, nasal airway obstruction, recurrent acute otitis media, and chronic rhinosinusitis. A new recommendation was released in 2016, not supporting adenoidectomy for a primary indication of otitis media in children under 4 years old, including those with prior tympanostomy tubes, unless a distinct indication exists such as nasal obstruction or chronic adenoiditis. Although adenotonsillectomy is the mainstay of treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), recent studies have identified that non-obese patients with moderate OSA and small tonsils have comparable benefits with adenoidectomy alone with less complications. While conventional approaches such as indirect mirror-assisted curette and suction coagulation are still utilized, direct transnasal endoscopeassisted removal of the adenoids has proven to be a safe technique, with good short-and long-term outcomes. Novel nonsurgical therapies including immunotherapy have been evaluated. Summary Adenoidectomy is a safe procedure in the pediatric population and leads to excellent outcomes. Adverse events are rare, and hospitalization is uncommon. Children with sleep disturbance from nasal airway obstruction, ear disease, or chronic rhinosinusitis are the best operative candidates for this procedure.

В огляді сучасної літератури подані дані щодо впливу гіперплазії аденоїдів та аденотомії на імунітет і стан здоров’я дітей. Показано, що наявність у дитини гіперплазії аденоїдів створює умови для більш частої захворюваності на респіраторну патологію з тяжким перебігом за рахунок тривалої колонізації патогенними та умовно-патогенними мікроорганізмами на тлі морфофункціональної перебудови структур мукозального імунітету з його транзиторною недостатністю. Аденотомія справляє позитивний ефект лише як засіб усунення механічних перешкод носовому диханню, не впливаючи на інші компоненти патологічного процесу в носоглотці дітей із гіперплазією аденоїдів.
