Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the feature of juvenile onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JORRP).Methods:Thirty-eight cases with JORRP were analyzed retrospectively from June,1986 to June,2000.Results:The average age was 3.5 years before diagnosis.Average 3.45 operations had been performed per patient .Of 38 cases ,eight had comlications of laryngeal dysfunction after operations.Peristomal and tracheal papilloma were spread in six of the nineteen cases with tracheotomies.Conclusion:JORRP is the most common laryngeal tumor in children. Most patients have frequent recurrences and multiple operations. Care should be taken to avoid damaging the normal laryngeal structure during surgical excision.
