Abstract
Introduction

The most frequent treatment carried out by ORL-HNS is a tonsillectomy, which has a risk of a lengthy recovery period owing to bleeding. Numerous colleagues have utilized LigaSure to facilitate surgery. We want to talk about our experiences using this equipment during tonsillectomy surgery.

Material & Method

Due to the small sample size, a case series investigation was chosen. From January to June 2022, a study was undertaken at the RSU PKU Muhammadiyah Bantul hospital. Valleylab’s LigaSure is registered as the LS10 LigaSure with short/long jaw probe. Electrocoagulation and cold dissection techniques were combined.

Result

Eight individuals with a range of tonsillectomy indications participated in this research. There was one postoperative hemorrhage found. Mean post-operative blood loss was 192,5 mL, with post-operative VAS scores of 3,5, 1, 3, 2, 5, and 1 on days 3, 5, and 7. A statistical value was inferred from one outlier observation.

Discussion

Due to its adaptability and quick recovery time, electrocoagulation-assisted tonsillectomy is most popular in the USA. However, multiple studies have found a correlation between this approach and more post-operative bleeding. In spite of their being no need to control bleeding in the operation room, a paediatric patient experienced secondary hemorrhage on day 5 of the case series. To reduce this occurrence, strict adherence to the post-tonsillectomy procedure is required.
