The Indian Journal of Pediatrics (impact factor: 0.52). 04/2012; 67(8):567-569. DOI:10.1007/BF02758480

ABSTRACT Multiple papilloma of larynx is caused by human papilloma virus. We treated sixteen such cases (10 males and six females)
in the last 10 years. All presented with hoarseness while six presented with difficulty in respiration. Three patients needed
tracheostomy, all had difficult decanulation, and one developed laryngotracheal stenosis and could not be decanulated. All
were treated by surgical excision; ten had recurrence. Four patients were treated with post operative Acyclovir with no recurrence
in three cases.
