Abstract :Aim: We aimed to discuss and investigate the relationship between the surgeon\`s experience and post-tonsillectomy bleeding insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(PTB); in the light of the literature. Methods: The retrospective data was obtained from 280 patients who underwent tonsillectomy insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(32 PTB and 248 no-PTB); operated by residents or consultant surgeons. Results: The overall bleeding rate after tonsillectomy was 11.43% insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(32/280);. The bleeding rate was 14.3% in the <16 age group and 9.7% in the ≥16 age group insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p=0.246);. While the rate of bleeding after tonsillectomy operation was 6.16% in the resident group; it was 27.53% in the consultant group insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.001);. In patients who bled after tonsillectomy operation, the operation time was significantly shorter in the consultant group insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p=0.032);. Binary Logistic Regression analysis revealed that being a consultant surgeon is a risk factor for bleeding after tonsillectomy operation insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.001);. Short operation time was a weak risk factor insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p=0.048);. Conclusions: More experience in surgery does not decrease the risk for PTB, quite the reverse, it increases the PTB risk. The effort to finish surgery in a short time, and possibility of performing a less careful and more traumatic surgery might have caused this result.Keywords : Tonsillektomi, tonsillektomi sonrası kanama, asistan, uzman, cerrahın deneyimi
