Abstract

Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) caused by human papilloma virus is a benign neoplasm, and primarily involve the epithelial mucosa of the respiratory tract. RRP may occur anywhere in the respiratory tract with a predilection at the larynx and could cause life-threatening airway obstructions.
