Özet:
Tonsillectomy is one of the most common operations performed
by otolaryngologists. Fever, otalgia, dehydration, sore throat,
and hemorrhage are common complications. In this clinical report,
a 7-year-old boy was presented with a synechia between the posterior
plicae together with recurrence of adenoid hypertrophy after
adenotonsillectomy 1 year previously. The synechia and adenoid
were resected, and the patient was discharged from the hospital
after 2 days. The complication in this case was most likely caused
by traumatic injury of the posterior plicae during the previous tonsillectomy.
This complication is, however, very rare.
