Abstract

Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis is a condition caused by human papilloma virus, usually sub types 6 and 11. Papillomas are benign neoplasms that are most commonly found on the larynx and can be often associated with significant airway involvement. Frequency of episodes varies among patients as do the clinical symptoms. Patients often present with symptoms such as hoarseness but there is potential for respiratory compromise and even complete airway obstruction.<br />Competing Interests: Declaration of Conflicting InterestsThe author(s) declared no potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article.
