Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis: A state-of-the-art review

Abstract: Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a benign disease of the upper aero-digestive tract caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, which affects children and young adults. The aim of this review is to describe the main etiological, epidemiological, clinical, diagnostic, and treatment aspects of RRP. Most infections in children occur at birth, during passage through the birth canals of contaminated mothers. In adults, HPV is transmitted sexually. Papillomas usually appear as exophytic nodules, pri… Show more

“…AGW can become large during pregnancy 5 but will usually disappear within weeks of delivery. In rare cases, HPV can be transmitted during child birth resulting in recurrent respiratory papillomatosis in the infant 73 Diagnosis and management of AGW Imiquimod 5% or 3.75% Imiquimod is an immune response modifier with antiviral activity. This Toll-like receptor 7 agonist induces the production of cytokines, which enhance the ability of antigen presenting cells to present viral antigens to reactive T lymphocytes.…”

“…Pathologic Features.-Papillomas of the airway may be sessile or papillary, consisting of stratified layers of maturing squamous cells surrounding a fibrovascular core (74,79,80) (Figs 10, 11). Maturation of the epithelial cells is delayed but orderly from the basal layers to the surface, resulting in thickening of the basal cell layers and nucleated cells in the superficial layer (74).…”
