How do you remove the adenoids?

The operation is performed  under general anaesthetic through the mouth.

A gag is used to open the mouth and a suction diathermy  or coblation device is used to 'vaporise' the adenoid tissue under direct vision. This technique has superceded the old fashioned curettage procedure and has the advantage of being a relatively  'bloodless' procedure with minimal  pain following the surgery.
