No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators postulate that the use of pre-incisional peritonsillar infiltration of tramadol or lidocaine reduces both the inflammatory response and postoperative analgesic consumption, without harmful effects. Therefore, the present study is designed to evaluate the effects of infiltration of tramadol or lidocaine on the postoperative acute-phase serum protein, C-reactive protein, and analgesic consumption after tonsillectomy.
