Current and future management of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis

Abstract: ObjectivesRecurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a chronic disease of the respiratory tract that occurs in both children and adults. It is caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), in particular low‐risk HPV6 and HPV11, and aggressiveness varies among patients. RRP remains a chronic disease that is difficult to manage. This review provides perspectives on current and future management of RRP.ResultsThe current standard of care is surgical excision, with adjuvant therapies as needed. Surgical management … Show more

“…The standard of care remains surgical removal of the papillomas (usually by laser ablation) to keep the airway patent, with patients requiring a median of 4.4 (range 0.2 to 19.3) surgical procedures per year, attesting to the medical burden of this disease (4,11). Spontaneous remission occurs in approximately one-half of children by adulthood (4,12,13).…”

“…Novel defects of hyperactive immunity leading to viral infection-related morbidity Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a rare disease resulting in recurrent benign papillomas of the respiratory mucosa in otherwise healthy children and is typically caused by chronic infection with human papilloma virus (HPV) serotypes 6 or 11 83 . Thus far, an immunologic etiology for this disease has remained unknown.…”

“…The earlier the onset of JoRRP, the more aggressive the disease will be. In the United States the incidence of JoRRP is estimated to be 4.3 per 100,000 children and the infection with HPV 6 and 11 remains the main cause [ 18 , 19 , 20 ]. On the other hand, high risk HPVs, such as type 16, have been also detected in the oral mucosa and buccal swabs of children that are up to 12 years old [ 21 ].…”
