Description: The child is gaving recurrent UI with high arched palate and failure to grow which indicates child is having adenoids and since there is impaired hearing it means child has developed otitis media as a complication. Hence logically the child should be treated with adenoidectomy with grommet inseion.This is fuher suppoed by following lines from Scott Brown. "Current practice is to perform adenoidectomy as an adjunct to the inseion of ventilation tubes." Ref Scott Brown 7/e,Vol 1,p 902.
