" Adenoid "
🔸Dif. Hypertrophy of subepithelial lymphoid tissue of nasopharynx
🔸Aetiology :
-reccurent Rhinitis ,sinusitis ,tonsilitis
-allergy of the URT
🔸C/P
♦️Nasal symptoms:
-Nasal obstraction (MC)>>mouth breathing >>interferes with feeding or suckling > fails to thrive
-Snoring , sleep apnae
-Nasal discharge > wet bubbly nos
-Sinusitis
-Epistaxis
-Voice change > rhinolalia clausa
♦️Aural symptoms :
-Tubal obstraction > retracted drum >CHL
-recurrent atack of AOM ( Aotalgia)
-chronic suppurative OM
-Serous OM
♦️General
🔹Adenoid facies
Deu to prolonged mouth breathing >
-Enlarged face with dull expression
-Open mouth
-Prominent and crowded upper teeth
-Elevated upper lip
-Receding lowe jaw
-Pinched nostril
-High arched Hard palate
🔹pulmonary HTN > cor pulmonale
🔹Aprosexia ( lack of concentration)
🔸manegment
🔹mild case >medical as
Decongestant nasal drop , anti histamine ,treat infection > cure
🔹marked symptoms > adenoidoctomy

🦉Hyponasality (Rhinolalia cluasa) It is lack of nasal resonance for words which are resonated in the nasal cavity, e.g. m, n, ng.
It is due to blockage of the nose or nasopharynx.
🦉Hypernasality (Rhinolalia aperta)
It is seen when certain words which have little nasal resonance are resonated through nose. The defect is in failure of the nasopharynx to cut off from oropharynx or abnormal
communication between the oral and nasal cavities.
