Overview

Examination of the correlation between adenoid hypertrophy and body temperature in candidate children for adenoidectomy after exercise

Examination of the correlation between adenoid hypertrophy and body temperature in candidate children for adenoidectomy after exercise. Adenoid hypertrophy and adenoiditis are accompanied by chronic rhinitis with or without otitis media. It is very common phenomena at ages 2-6 years and those children are symptomatic with snoring, rhinitis, nasal obstruction. In healthy children with nasal obstruction, body temperature can be elevated following exercise. As adenoiditis and chronic rhinitis are accompanied by inflammatory process, we would like to examine body temperature of children with adenoid hypertrophy before after exercise.
