Procedures in Paediatric ENT

Our paediatric otolaryngologists are skilled in performing a variety of procedures to diagnose and treat ear, nose, and throat disorders in children. Some of the procedures commonly adopted in Paediatric ENT include:

1

Tonsillectomy

Tonsillectomy is a surgical procedure used to remove the tonsils, which are lymphoid tissues located at the back of the throat. It may be recommended for children with recurrent tonsillitis, sleep-disordered breathing, or obstructive sleep apnoea.
2

Adenoidectomy

Adenoidectomy is a surgical procedure used to remove the adenoids, which are lymphoid tissues located at the back of the nose. It may be recommended for children with recurrent adenoiditis, chronic sinusitis, or obstructive sleep-disordered breathing.
3

Myringotomy and Grommet Insertion

Myringotomy is a surgical procedure used to create a small incision in the eardrum to relieve pressure and drain fluid from the middle ear. Grommet insertion involves placing a small tube (grommet) into the eardrum to ventilate the middle ear and prevent fluid accumulation. These procedures are commonly performed for children with recurrent middle ear infections or persistent fluid in the middle ear.
4

Laryngo-Tracheo-Bronchoscopy (LTB)

Laryngo-tracheo-bronchoscopy is a diagnostic procedure used to evaluate the upper and lower airway structures, including the larynx, trachea, and bronchi, using a flexible endoscope. It allows for visualization of anatomical abnormalities, assessment of airway function, and collection of tissue samples for biopsy.
4

Laryngotracheal Reconstruction

Laryngotracheal reconstruction is a surgical procedure used to correct airway stenosis or narrowing in the larynx and trachea. It involves various techniques such as cartilage grafting, laryngeal keel placement, and tracheal resection and anastomosis to restore airway patency and improve breathing.
4

Neck Mass Excision

Neck mass excision is a surgical procedure used to remove abnormal or concerning masses located in the neck region. It may be performed under general anesthesia and involves making an incision in the neck to access and remove the mass while preserving surrounding structures and minimizing scarring.
