Abstract

A study conducted by researchers at Van Yuzuncu Yil University Faculty of Medicine in Turkey explored the relationship between adenoid hypertrophy and childhood afebrile seizures. The researchers measured adenoid tissue volume and nasopharyngeal distance in children aged 2-8 years who presented with afebrile seizures. They found that increased adenoid tissue volume was significantly associated with a higher number of afebrile seizure episodes. This research suggests that volumetric adenoid tissue size may be a contributing factor to recurrent episodes of childhood afebrile seizure. [Extracted from the article]
