What tests are needed for enlarged gland?

Children sometimes make a gently snoring sound during sleep, which is often considered as a sign of being asleep. Therefore, snoring caused by enlarged proliferative glands in children is often overlooked by parents. Enlarged proliferative glands in children mostly constitute the cause of snoring together with enlarged tonsils, and special attention should be paid to the presence of apnea and, if necessary, examination of proliferative glands in hospitals. What tests are needed for enlarged gland? The following are the tests that need to be done for hyperplasia of the proliferative glands: 1. Anterior rhinoscopy is performed after sufficient contraction of the nasal mucosa, and a red mass elevation may be seen in the nasopharynx. 2, oropharyngeal examination of the hard palate is high and narrow, often accompanied by palatal tonsillar hypertrophy. 3.The child breathes with an open mouth, and sometimes an “adenoid face” is seen. 4.Palpation is performed with the finger, and soft masses can be found in the roof and posterior wall of the nasopharynx. 5.Lateral nasopharyngeal film measurement: the degree of nasopharyngeal airway obstruction can be measured. 6, fiberoptic nasopharyngoscopy in the top and posterior wall of the nasopharynx can be seen on the surface of the longitudinal fissures of lobulated lymphatic tissue, like half of a small peeled orange. 7.X-ray nasopharyngeal lateral radiographs, which can help to diagnose. 8.CT: CT axial image shows deformation and narrowing of the nasopharyngeal air cavity, thickening of the posterior wall soft tissue, uniform density, similar to the long muscle of the head, symmetrical on the left and right side, smooth or wavy anterior edge, protruding into the air cavity, pharyngeal fossa and pharyngo-pharyngeal orifice are vaguely visible or poorly displayed, different degrees of obstruction of the posterior nostril, clear parapharyngeal space, no destruction of adjacent bone, CT axial image measurement, adenoid index ≥ 0.70.
