Three extraordinary complications of adenotonsillectomy
چکیده انگلیسی

SummaryIn a 6-month period, three patients aged 5–11 years were transferred to our tertiary care children's hospital for management of severe complications following adenotonsillectomy. The first patient presented with headaches and lethargy and was found to have a sagittal sinus thrombosis from severe dehydration. The second patient was admitted immediately following an intra-operative oral cavity fire due to electrocautery malfunction. She suffered partial-thickness burns to the buccal mucosa, palate, and lips. The third patient was admitted with torticollis. Grisel's syndrome was initially suspected, but a thorough work up resulted in the diagnosis of a conversion disorder. These cases comprise an interesting cohort of three little-known complications of adenotonsillectomy.
