ST. Clair Thompson adenoid
Cureie wilh cage
This instrument is used to curette the adenoids by a blind technique. The
curette is introduced behind the soft palate with the blade facing down.
It is heid like a dagger and the adenoid is curetted from the
nasopharyngeal wall in the midline by sweeping movement. The cage is
used to prevent slipping of the excised tissue into the throat. During the
procedure, the neck of the patient should not be in too much extension
as it might injure the atlanto-occipital joint.
Another vioty without cage is called Beckman adenoid curette.
