Adenoidectomy

The adenoid is tonsil-like tissue located in the throat behind the nasal passage. If enlarged, it causes obstructive nasal symptoms (congestion, mucus accumulation) and snoring. It can also contribute to ear problems due to its location next to the Eustachian tube opening. Adenoidectomy is sometimes done in conjunction with tonsillectomy, and is performed through the mouth and nose.
