[Technics and indications of general anesthesia for tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy. Apropos of an experience using anesthetic perfusion and cold loop technic].
The authors present the results of an enquiry carried out in University and regional hospitals in France and recall the interest of general anaesthesia with tracheal intubation during tonsillectomy. This makes possible, even in young children, the use of the technique of cold loop dissection. Its main advantage is in the absolute control of the airways which permits the operator to carry out careful hemostasis. Propanidide used in perfusion, allows these patients to wake up rapidly and the awakening is of good quality; this is essential in this type of operation.
