Adenoid surgery study in children
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study looks at children getting adenoid surgery (adenoidectomy) to see how different factors and surgical methods affect whether any adenoid tissue is left behind. It aims to help improve surgical outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be evaluated at a specific upper airway clinic.
- Your child must be a candidate for adenoidectomy surgery.
- Your child must be under 18 years old.

This study looks at whether removing enlarged adenoids (small lymph tissue in the nose/throat) can help children with allergic rhinitis (allergy-caused runny nose, sneezing, and congestion) feel better and reduce their allergy markers. Researchers will track symptom improvement and measure IgE levels (a protein related to allergies) before and after surgery.
This study compares different surgical tools used during tonsil and adenoid removal surgery in children. The goal is to see which tool works best and is safest for this common pediatric surgery.
This study looks at how removing the adenoids (and sometimes tonsils) affects children's voices. It aims to see if there are changes in voice quality after surgery in children who are otherwise healthy.
This trial looks at how well a specific throat surgery technique works in children who are having their tonsils removed (with or without removing adenoids). It may help improve how doctors choose and perform surgery for safer, better recovery.
This study tests if teaching families about diet helps children recover better after surgery to remove tonsils and adenoids. It may help your child heal faster and have fewer complications.
This study uses a lab method called single-cell sequencing to look at tiny cells from tonsil tissue in children. It compares children with obstructive sleep apnea to children without it, to better understand what’s happening in the throat and how it may relate to needing tonsil removal.
