Adenoidectomy Surgery Cost In India

Long-term complications after adenoidectomy surgery are very rare (less than 4%). Some of the most common complications that occur after adenoidectomy are:

• Failure to resolve the symptoms and associated problems like breathing problems, ear infections, or nasal drainage
• Excessive bleeding
• Permanent changes in vocal quality
• Infection
• Risks from the use of anesthesia

Surgical procedure that a patient may need with adenoidectomy is determined based on their symptoms. Some of the most common procedures are:

• Myringotomy: It is the most common procedure for resolving chronic ear infections. In this procedure, the surgeon makes a small incision in the eardrum to drain the ear and relieve inner and middle ear pressure.
• Tonsillectomy: Tonsilloadenoidectomy or T&A surgery is a very common procedure that involves the removal of the tonsils and adenoids at the same time to prevent future tonsil or adenoid infections.
• Tympanostomy: A tympanostomy is performed to relieve inner ear pressure due to ear infections. The surgeon inserts ear tubes to drain the mucus build-up in the ear and provide relief.
• FESS: If the adenoid infection has spread to the sinuses and is leading to sinus and airway blockage, then the patient may need FESS surgery for sinus drainage so that they can breathe properly.

The cost of adenoidectomy in India depends on:

Choice of treatment city and hospital

Adenoidectomy may be slightly more expensive in a metro city than in a non-metro city. Similarly, hospitalization cost is different based on the type of hospital and the hospital room. While the procedure can be done outpatient, in severe cases, the patient may be admitted to the hospital.

Type of treatment

The overall cost of adenoidectomy treatment is also determined by the type of surgery performed. In general, the surgical technique is chosen based on the severity of the condition, the patient’s age and health condition, the surgeon’s and the patient’s preferences, etc.

Additional surgeries required

Based on the patient’s symptoms, the patient may require additional surgeries such as tonsillectomy, FESS, myringotomy, etc., which will impact the cost of the entire treatment, including diagnosis and recovery.

Post-surgical care and management of complications

Although adenoidectomy is a safe procedure, in rare cases there may be postoperative complications such as pain, nausea, airway obstruction, bleeding, etc. Proper post-operative care is essential to avoid such complications.

Surgeon fees

The surgeon’s consultation and surgical fees are determined by their level of expertise and experience. An experienced surgeon has a better chance of completing the treatment without complications.

Cost of diagnostic tests

Before the adenoidectomy procedure, proper diagnostic tests such as endoscopy, tissue swab, and imaging tests are required to form an accurate diagnostic plan. Generally, the cost of diagnostic tests before the surgery ranges from Rs. 4000 to Rs. 7000. The cost of diagnostic tests for adenoidectomy is as follows:

• X-ray (Nasopharynx) : Rs. 250- Rs. 500
• Lab tests (blood tests, tissue culture, etc.): Rs. 500 – Rs. 1000
• Endoscopy: Rs. 1500 – Rs. 2000
• Imaging tests: Rs. 1500 – Rs. 4000
