Adenoidectomy with Radiofrequency Ablation (Coblator) Technique
videoContributors: Soham Roy and Steven Curry Adenoidectomy is among the most common surgical procedures performed in children. The two major indications are nasopharyngeal airway obstruction and recurrent or chronic infections of the nasopharynx. This surgery is often carried out with a combined tonsillectomy which is performed for similar indications and depicted here.
Myringotomy with Tympanostomy Tube Insertion
videoMyringotomy with tympanostomy tube insertion is among the most common pediatric operative procedures and is indicated to provide ventilation of the middle ear. Surgical incision in the tympanic membrane (myringotomy) is followed by tympanostomy tube insertion to prevent premature closure of the incision site. The goal of the procedure is to reduce the frequency, duration, and severity of subsequent otitis media episodes and to prevent recurrence of middle ear effusions.

Microlaryngoscopy in a Child with Normal Anatomy
videoContributor: Thomas Mitchell A laryngoscope is used to allow magnified visualization of the anatomy of the larynx in a pediatric patient. Labelled stills are used to demonstrate specific anatomy and landmarks. This procedure is indicated to diagnose and/or treat pathology of the airway and vocal cords. However, no pathology is seen in this patient.
Adenoidectomy with Suction Electrocautery Technique
videoAdenoidectomy is among the most common surgical procedures performed in children. The two major indications are nasopharyngeal airway obstruction and recurrent or chronic infections of the nasopharynx. This surgery is often carried out with a combined tonsillectomy which is performed for similar indications. The technique used in this video is suction electrocautery, a recently developed technique that allows for more precision and minimal blood loss compared with more traditional techniques.

Tonsillectomy with Radiofrequency Ablation (Coblator) Technique
videoTonsillectomy is among the most common surgical procedures performed in children. The two major indications are oropharyngeal airway obstruction and recurrent or chronic infections of the oropharynx. In this video, radiofrequency ablation, or Coblation (controlled ablation), is the technique used to ablate the tonsils. This technique uses low-temperature radiofrequency and saline to create a plasma field that dissolves tissue. It is generally safer that high-temperature electrocautery and allows for precise removal of tissue without burning nearby structures.
