A member asked:
Could adenoid removal in an adult age 64 be of concern for cancer, or could it be due to severe allergies?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Adenoids: Not sure why they are removing adenoids in a 64 year old person, unless it is a surgery for snoring. Adenoids can be obstructive, cancer is very rare.
