Efficacy of endoscopic powered intracapsular tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy for pediatric obstructive sleep apnea: A retrospective case-control study.
Abstract
Safe surgery for pediatric patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is important to decrease postoperative events and improve cost-effectiveness. Therefore, this study aimed to compare surgical efficacy and safety between powered intracapsular tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy (PITA) and extracapsular tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy for OSA in children.
