McMaster Children’s Hospital is set to resume tonsil and adenoid surgeries after two children died following the procedure.
The hospital says an external review launched in June did not find any specific issues that directly or indirectly led to the deaths.
Pediatric tonsil and adenoid surgeries were paused at the institution on June 4 after one child died the day after surgery and another died nine days after their procedure.
One of those children was from Norfolk County.
Surgeries are set to resume next week.
