ABSTRACT
The problem of choosing tactics for managing children with chronic rhinosinusitis has been the subject of discussion among otorhinolaryngologists for a long time. According to recent studies, in approximately 65% of cases, conservative treatment does not bring the desired lasting effect. Therefore, there is a need for surgical intervention. For children, the least traumatic method of surgical treatment is an adenotomy. As is known, hypertrophied adenoid tissue can be not only a source of chronic infection but also cause a violation of nasal breathing, which, in turn, leads to the development of chronic inflammation of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses.
