Adenoiditis occurs when there is inflammation of the adenoid tissue resulting most commonly from infection, allergies, or irritation from stomach acid. Adenoiditis rarely occurs independently and is typically involved in a regional disease process such as adenotonsillitis, pharyngitis, rhinosinusitis, or laryngopharyngeal reflux. Continual irritation may lead to adenoid hypertrophy, responsible for many of the complications of adenoid disease. Adenoiditis can be classified as acute or chronic. This activity reviews the presentation and management of patients with adenoiditis and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in improving outcomes for patients with this condition.
