Tonsillectomy

Tonsillectomy is a surgical procedure in which both palatine tonsils are fully removed from
the back of the throat. It is used for the treatment of recurrent throat infections, chronic
infections of tonsils, obstructive sleep apnea and supportive otitis media etc.

Otosclerosis
An intreated disorder characterized by abnormal bone growth in ear. In this condition one
of the three bones in MIDDLE ear are unable to vibrate freely causing hearing loss and
also vertigo in rare cases.

Labyrinthitis
Inflammation of the inner ear or the nerves that connect the inner ear to the brain,
disrupting the flow of sensory information resulting in vertigo, dizziness and even hearing
loss. Usually caused by a virus.Sometimes can get it with an upper respiratory infection
or. bacterial ear infection.

Sjogren syndrome
An autoimmune disorder characterized by dry eyes and dry mouth caused by
degeneration of lacrimal and salivary glands. sjögren's often occurs with other such
disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus.

Deviated nasal septum (dns)

Nasal septum deviation is a physical disorder of the nose, involving a displacement of the
nasal septum to sideways. Commonly caused by nose injuryI.n many cases, there may be
no symptoms. When symptoms occur, they include a congested nostril, nosebleeds, and
noisy breathing during sleep.

Obstructive sleep apnea

Obstructive sleep apnea is a disorder resulting from collapse of the upper airway during
sleep Obstructive sleep apnea is seen in all age groups, but the frequency increases with
age and obesity.Symptoms include snoring and daytime sleepiness.

Pleomorphic adenoma
Pleomorphic adenoma is a common benign salivary gland neoplasm characterised by
neoplastic proliferation of parenchymatous glandular cells along with myoepithelial
components. It is the most common type of salivary and parotid gland tumor.

Adenoid facies
Adenoid facies, also known as the long face syndrome, refers to the long, open-mouthed
face of children with adenoid hypertrophy. Hypertrophy of the nasopharyngeal pad of
lymphoid tissues (adenoids) is the most common cause of nasal obstruction in children.

Ostiomeatal complex
osteomeatal complex, is a common channel that links the frontal sinus, anterior ethmoid
air cells and the maxillary sinus to the middle meatus, allowing airflow and mucociliary
drainage.

Rhinitis
Rhinitis is inflammation and swelling of the mucous membrane of the nose, characterized
by a runny nose and stuffiness and usually caused by the common cold or a seasonal
allergy.

Pharyngitis
Pharyngitis is inflammation of the back of the throat, known as the pharynx. It typically
results in a sore throat and fever. Other symptoms may include a runny nose, cough,
headache, and a hoarse voice. Symptoms usually last 3–5 days.

Laryngitis
An inflammation of the voice box from overuse, irritation, or infection. Laryngitis may last
for a short time (acute) or be ongoing (chronic). The main symptoms are hoarseness and
loss of voice.

Rinne test
The Rinne test is used primarily to evaluate loss of hearing in one ear. It compares
perception of sounds transmitted by air conduction to those transmitted by bone
conduction through the mastoid. Thus, one can quickly screen for the presence of
conductive hearing loss.
