Summary

Tonsillar tissue is a significant organ for the performing of immune systems in children. The Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER), is an organelle needed for the care of a stable function of the cells. The purpose of the study was to explore the correlation among ER stress and tonsillar tissue disorders and to explain the structure of diseases related to the immune system.

Conditions

  • Tonsillitis
  • Tonsillar Hypertrophy
  • Immune System Diseases

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Tonsillectomy surgery

The tonsillectomy procedure was performed under general anesthesia using the classical dissection method. Extracted tonsil tissue samples were sent to the medical genetics department in tubes to investigate the ER stress and apoptosis.
