ENDO CUT® Surgical Handpiece Designed for radio Frequecy Adenoidectomy

We present our experience of performing adenoidectomy with ICC200, a radio frequency surgical system which can provide both ENDO CUT and soft coagulation modes. The ENDO CUT handpiece was designed simulating the Beckmann adnoidectome. Our results from all 8 cases showed that less bleeding and shorter of operation time could be achieved by using this device. The surgical skill was found to be similar to traditional adenoidectomy, and the residual adenoid tissues approaching the posterior edge of the nasal septum still required to be removed with forceps or a punch. Soft coagulation is especially helpful to control the bleeding in this area, and is also effective for the bleeding from a surgical wound produced by ENDO CUT.
