Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis of the larynx: current diagnosis and treatment

Abstract

Treating children with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis can be very rewarding as more information is learned about human papillomavirus. The future goals are reducing the morbidity and mortality of this disease process. The establishment of the national recurrent respiratory papillomatosis patient registry and coordinated efforts between basic scientists involved in human papillomavirus research and clinicians involved in the treatment of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis should aid the endeavor.
