“…These advantages have already been reported in the literature [17,18,15,22,23], only Leaper [21] found that operative time and intraoperative bleeding were similar in children submitted to EMRBT and in children who underwent BDT. Gregor and colleagues [18] observed a significant reduction of blood loss, a longer time to healing of surgical wounds and to resumption of a normal diet, but no differences in operative time.…”

“…The methodology for adenoidectomy was described or referenced in 36 (63%) of the 57 studies in which adenoidectomy was performed in some or all of the subjects [4,13,14,[21][22][23][24][25][26]28,29,[31][32][33][34]. Seventeen (30%) of the 57 studies in which adenoidectomy was performed separated out patients who underwent concurrent adenoidectomy and also described or referenced the adenoidectomy technique [4,14,[24][25][26]28,29,[31][32][33][34][37][38][39][40][41][42].…”
