Assessing the efficacy of celecoxib after tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of randomised control trials
Abstract
Tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy are common surgical procedures that cause persistent pain, bleeding, and functional limitations. We aimed to investigate the efficacy of celecoxib compared with a placebo for managing post‐tonsillectomy or adenoidectomy pain and other adverse events.
