<p>At the present, many countries with highly advanced medical technology, such as the United States of America, England, India, Bangladesh, and European countries,  had already developed “Modern Tonsillectomy”  using Co2 Laser machine. However, this is made to treat patients with tonsillitis; according to a process, some of the good tonsil issues may require storage. In fact, today the information about this new Tonsillectomy is served as below given by our medical director of Ear Nose Throat Clinic, DR.SARANCHAI KIATSURAYANON from Phyathai 3 Hospital,</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h4>The Dr. has explained that tonsil is one of the organs inside human body. It functions the immune system. According to the modern medical science, the tonsils have the large numbers of stem cells. In fact, the quality of them is higher than Stem Cell from bone-marrow and also easier to be used. That is a reason why they should not be cut during a treatment process unless a condition harms the patients, for example, diagnosing with cancer, or having tonsil infection which cannot be treated, however, this case happens by more than 1 to 2% of tonsil diseases.</h4>

<p>This technique has various processes depends on the cause of diseases, for example, a cause of bad breath like Tonsil stones, which is treated by Co2 Laser Cryptolysis, but in case of Recurrent Tonsillitis, Co2 Laser Resurfacing will be applied for a treatment instead. Moreover, if the tonsils have severe pathological stage, Co2 Laser intracapsular Tonsillectomy then will be used in order to remove almost 95 percent every single one of the infected Tonsil and keep certain 5 percent good tissues by Co2 Laser intracapsular Tonsillectomy</p>
