Abstract (Original Language): 
Tonsillektomi ameliyatı küçük cerrahi girişim olmakla beraber, nadiren de olsa hayatı tehdit eden komplikasyonlar eşlik edebilmektedir. Tonsillektomi ameliyatı sonrası kanama, erişkinlerde çocuk popülasyona oranla daha sık görülmektedir. Bu olgu sunumunda kanama kontrolü amacı ile tonsillektomi sonrası 10. günde ameliyata alınan ve ekstübasyon sırasında masif kanaması olan hastanın başarılı anestezi ve cerrahi yönetimi sunularak literatür eşliğinde tartışılmıştır
