Brief Summary: To evaluate the effect of injectable Prf on healing, hemostasis and pain post tonsillectomy
Detailed Description: Tonsillectomy is the most common surgical procedure performed by otolaryngologists with or without adenoidectomy. \[1\] The most important complication of tonsillectomy is post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage with potential morbidity and death. \[2\] Also, severe pain and wound healing remain major problems that affect patients profoundly after surgery causing a lot of time to return to a regular diet and normal activity. \[3\] Pharmacological drugs are used to control post-tonsillectomy pain but with challenges like insufficiency to control pain, the presence of contraindications, and the presence of side effects as the antiplatelet effects of NSAIDs lead to increased rates of postoperative hemorrhage.\[4\] Growth factors and other mediators released by activated platelets play an important role in tissue regeneration and revascularization. Platelet concentrates, therefore, represent a promising therapeutic tool for tissue regeneration. In recent years, the effects of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on tissue healing have been addressed in many surgical branches, especially for dental implant surgery and plastic surgery.\[5\] Injectable platelet-rich fibrin (IPRF) is a recently developed leukocyte-enriched platelet concentrate, which could better assist tissue regeneration and wound healing phenomena. Although initially in a liquid phase, IPRF forms a dynamic fibrin gel embedding platelets, leukocytes, type 1 collagen (COL1), osteocalcin (OC), growth factors, and providing a slow release of growth factors. \[6-10\]
