adenoidectomy (Noun) Surgical removal of the adenoids, or of adenoid growths in the nasopharynx; commonly performed along with tonsillectomy. Freebase (0.00 / 0 votes) Rate this definition: Adenoidectomy
The procedure is often combined with tonsillectomy (this combination is usually called an adenotonsillectomy or T&A) and recovery time can range from several hours to two or three days (though as age increases so does recovery time). Adenoidectomy is not often performed under one year of age as adenoid function is part of the body's immune system but its contribution to this decreases progressively beyond this age.
