Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Five cases of juvenile laryngeal papillomatosis encountered in Papua New Guinea during the period from December 1987 to May 1989 are described in detail. They were seen in the age-range of 1 year 7 months-5 years. The common clinical features were change of voice and dyspnoea. They were treated by microlaryngoscopic excision with cupped forceps. One of the cases followed-up for 15 months showed multiple recurrences. This condition of juvenile laryngeal papillomatosis, though not common, is certainly not rare in this country and should be considered as a differential diagnosis in the case of a child presenting with progressive dyspnoea. |
