Abstract
Adenoidectomy is a generally safe surgical procedure, with low complication and low revision rate. Our study indicated that the revision rate of adenoidectomy might be lower when performed by young visiting staff with medium to higher surgical volume in the medium to higher volume hospital. If patients had diseases such as otitis media with effusion, sinusitis, chronic pharyngitis, and sleep disorder, they would be subject to higher rate of re-adenoidectomy. Surgeons should be aware and sufficiently explain this information to the parents before surgery.
