The effect of tonsillectomy on the morbidity from recurrent tonsillitis (2017)
Journal Article
Douglas, C. M., Lang, K., Whitmer, W. M., Wilson, J. A., & Mackenzie, K. (2017). The effect of tonsillectomy on the morbidity from recurrent tonsillitis. Clinical Otolaryngology, 42(6), 1206-1210. https://doi.org/10.1111/coa.12850

Background

Tonsillitis is a common condition with an incidence in UK general practice of 37 per 1000 population a year.1 Recurrent tonsillitis results in significant morbidity and impacts on individuals’ quality of life. This study assesses the mo... Read More about The effect of tonsillectomy on the morbidity from recurrent tonsillitis.
