    Introduction Tonsillectomy is among the most common otolaryngological surgeries. Objective To evaluate and compare three tonsillectomy techniques: cold steel dissection (CSD), monopolar electrocautery (MEC), and coblation. Methods The present study retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent tonsillectomy between January 2014 and January 2016. Postoperative visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores, analgesic use, surgical duration, time to return to normal activity, and postoperative bleeding status were noted. Results The CSD group had less analgesic use and shorter return to normal activity than the MEC group ( p =0.037 and p <0.001, respectively). The coblation group had lower VAS pain scores than the MEC group only at 1hour to 4hours postsurgery ( p <0.016). The postoperative bleeding rate was similar in all groups ( p =0.096). Conclusion Cold steel dissection tonsillectomy is associated with less postoperative pain and shorter recovery than MEC. Coblation is better than MEC in terms of postoperative pain at 1hour to 4hours only, whereas CSD is associated with less postoperative pain than coblation at 2 days to 7 days.

    We examined the relationship between nasal septal deviation (SD) angle and maxillary sinus volumes by examining the paranasal sinus computed tomography (PNSCT) images in children. In this retrospective study, PNSCT images of 106 children with one-sided nasal SD were included. According to the SD angle, two groups were identified: Group 1 (n = 54): SD angle <= 11 degrees, Group 2 (n = 52): SD angle > 11 degrees. There were 23 children between 9 and 14 years and 83 children between 15 and 17 years. Maxillary sinus volume and mucosal thickening were evaluated. In 15- to 17-year age group, maxillary sinus volumes of males were higher than females bilaterally. For each of the males and females, ipsilateral maxillary sinus volume was significantly lower than the contralateral side in all children and in 15- to 17-year age group. In each of the SD angle values (<= 11 or >11) separately, ipsilateral maxillary sinus volume was lower; and in the SD angle > 11 degrees group, maxillary sinus mucosal thickening values were higher than those of the contralateral side. In young children in 9- to 14-year age group, bilateral maxillary sinus volumes decreased, in this group maxillary sinus volume was not affected according to the SD. However, in 15- to 17-year age groups, maxillary sinus volume was lower on the ipsilateral SD side; and ipsilateral and contralateral maxillary sinus volumes of the males were significantly higher than those in the females. SD should be treated at an appropriate time to prevent SD-related maxillary sinus volume shrinkage and rhinosinusitis.
