- W2333857462 abstract "Dysgeusia after tonsillectomy is a rare complication and there have been a few reports in the literature. The most possible cause ofthis complication is thought to be direct or indirect injury to the glossopharyngeal nerve or its lingual branch. Other suggested causesare lack of dietary zinc and habitual drug intake. We report a 51-year-old man, who presented severe parageusia and phantogeusiafollowing tonsillectomy that was performed for chronic tonsillitis. The surgery was performed by electrocautery dissection withoutidentifiable injury to the glossopharyngeal nerve. Dysgeusia developed 3 weeks after the operation and he complained loss ofappetite and significant weight loss. He did not take any drug habitually that could affect his sense of taste. His serum zinc level(48 μg/dl, normal range:61-121 μg/dl) was decreased. We prescribed a mineral supplement containing vitamin B complex andtherapeutic dose of zinc. Eight months after the operation, his taste function was not recovered and he still retained problems relatedto diet. This case indicates that a patient should be informed of the risk of postoperative taste disturbance after tonsillectomyas being one of the rare complications." @default.
