Purpose This retrospective study looked at the feasibility of using adult 4.0 mm flexible nasendoscopes (FNE) examination under local anesthetic (LA) in children three to 10 years old to diagnose adenoid hypertrophy (AH) and other conditions. We also looked for a correlation between the adenoid size on FNE and a) tonsil size, b) the typical symptoms of snoring, mouth breathing, impaired hearing, and apnoeic episodes c) the management options of otitis media with effusion (OME) and d) the adenoid size intraoperatively.
