pubmed:abstractText |
Anecdotal observations suggest an association between tonsil disease and growth retardation. This study compared height, weight and skinfold thickness measurements between a group of children (44) suffering from recurrent tonsillitis for a mean duration of 4 years, and a control group (34). No important differences were observed between the groups. Recurrent tonsil infection does not appear to retard the growth of children.
