When might tonsil surgery be necessary?

Tonsillectomy is generally recommended when tonsillitis occurs frequently or chronically and significantly impacts the patient's quality of life. Common symptoms of tonsillitis include sore throat, difficulty swallowing, fever, and frequent ear or sinus infections.

Additionally, enlargement of the tonsils may justify surgery if the patient experiences breathing problems, sleep apnea, or speech disturbances. Cancerous changes may also necessitate the removal of the tonsils, although this is rare.

Why is the BiZact™ scissor the best choice?

The BiZact™ scissor is the latest development for tonsil removal, offering numerous advantages over traditional methods:

  1. Less pain: The BiZact™ scissor heats tissue to only 60 degrees, whereas coblation works at 90-100 degrees. As a result, patients can return to normal eating habits 1-2 days earlier.
  2. Minimal bleeding: The BiZact™ scissor minimizes the risk of bleeding, which is the most common complication of tonsil surgery.
  3. Shorter surgery and anesthesia time: The speed of the surgery allows patients to return to their daily routines more quickly.
  4. Minimal tissue damage: The BiZact™ scissor ensures maximum efficacy with minimal tissue damage.

The BiZact™ tonsillectomy device, launched by Medtronic, guarantees a quick procedure with minimal bleeding, short anesthesia, and minimal tissue damage.

What you should know about the BiZact™ scissor:

The device is a single-use, ergonomically designed tonsillectomy scissor that ensures comfortable use. Its curved cutting jaws follow the curvature of the tonsillar bed, making it suitable for handling blood vessels up to 3 mm in diameter.
