Exposure to the human papilloma
virus (HPV) or Epstein-Barr virus
(EBV)

ionizing radiation

Prolonged sun exposure,
especially linked to cancer in the
lip area and skin cancer.

Fair skin, also linked to lip cancer
and skin cancer.

Age. People over the age of 45
years old are at increased risk for
oral cancers (though it can
develop in people of any age).

Poor nutrition.

Diseases of the Tonsils & Adenoid
Waldeyer's ring


Waldeyer's tonsillar ring (or
pharyngeal lymphoid ring) is an
anatomical term describing the lymphoid
tissue ring located in the pharynx and to
the back of the oral cavity.
It was named after the nineteenth century
German anatomist Heinrich Wilhelm
Gottfried von Waldeyer-Hartz.
Waldeyer's ring


Pharyngeal tonsil (also known
as 'adenoids' when infected)
Tubal tonsil (where Eustachian
tube opens in the
nasopharynx)
Palatine tonsils (commonly
called "the tonsils" in the
vernacular, less commonly
termed "faucial tonsils")
Lingual tonsils

Common Diseases of the Tonsils
and Adenoids
Acute adenoiditis/tonsillitis

adenoiditis/tonsillitis
 Obstructive hyperplasia
 Malignancy

Acute Adenotonsillitis
Etiology
 5-30% bacterial; of these
39% are beta-lactamaseproducing (BLPO)
Streptococcus pyogenes
(Group A beta-hemolytic
streptococcus GABHS
most important pathogen
because of potential
sequelae
Microbiology of Adenotonsillitis
Most common organisms cultured from
patients with chronic tonsillar disease
(recurrent/chronic infection, hyperplasia):
 Streptococcus pyogenes (Group A betahemolytic streptococcus)
 H.influenza
 S. aureus
 Streptococcus pneumoniae
Acute Adenotonsillitis
Differential diagnosis
Infectious mononucleosis
Malignancy: lymphoma, leukemia, carcinoma
Diptheria
Scarlet fever
Agranulocytosis
Medical Management

GABHS
Antibiotics aimed against BLPO and anaerobes
For acute UAO: IV abx, NP airway, steroids, and
immediate tonsillectomy for poor response
