<unk>  (enlarged<unk> s) is the unusual growth<unk>  of the<unk>  (pharyngeal tonsil) first described in 1868 by the Danish physician Wilhelm Meyer (1824–1895) in Copenhagen. He described a long term<unk>  that will cause an obstruction of the nasal airways. These will lead to a dentofacial growth anomaly that was defined as<unk>  facies" (see long face syndrome). There is very little lymphoid tissue in the nasopharynx of young babies; humans are born without substantial<unk> s. The mat of lymphoid tissue called<unk> s starts to get sizable during the first year of life. Just how big the<unk> s become is quite variable between individual children.
