dc.description.abstractObjectives: Adenoidectomy and the placement of tympanostomy tubes are among the most commonly performed surgical procedures in ear nose and throat clinics. Systemic and local causes have been implicated in the pathophysiology leading to these procedures. The aim of this study was to investigate a possible association between levels of vitamin A, vitamin D, iron, and zinc need to undergoing adenoidectomy and placement of tympanostomy tubes. Material and Methods: Demographic and disease- specific data were obtained from 31 Turkish children undergoing adenoidectomy and the placement of tympanostomy tubes, and 14 controls. Blood samples were taken for measurement of vitamin A, zinc, iron, and 25- hydroxy vitamin D (25[OH] D). All measurements were done in the same laboratory by the same researcher. Results: The study group comprised 13 (41.9%) girls and 18 (58.1%) boys, and the control group 7 (50%) girls and 7 (50%) boys. There were no statistically significant differences between study and control groups in plasma 25(OH) D, iron, zinc, or vitamin A levels (p> 0.05). Conclusions: This pilot study did not show an association between serum vitamin D, iron, zinc, and vitamin A and the need to have an adenoidectomy and placement of tympanostomy tubes.en_US
