Suturing the palatine arch to stop severe tonsil bleeding

Abstract

Used by many doctors as a method of treating chronic inflammation of the I and II tonsils, tonsillotomy consists in cutting off the part of the tonsil that protrudes inward from the palatine arches. Often, during this operation, life-threatening and even fatal bleeding can occur if the large blood vessels of the tonsil are damaged. Therefore, it is necessary to start this operation with certain caution: it is necessary to take all measures to prevent bleeding and prepare everything necessary to stop it. Tonsillotomy should not be done: in hemophiliacs, in acute-inflammatory condition of the tonsils, in women during menses. When performing an operation on the cut off part of the amygdala, tonsillitis should be applied in such a way that it would as little as possible capture the area of ​​the lower pole of the amygdala, where branches of large vessels usually pass. The wound surface, after cutting off a part of the tonsil, is well extinguished with alcohol.
