Systemic bevacizumab as adjuvant therapy for recurrent respiratory papillomatosis in children: A series of three pediatric cases and literature review.

Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP), a viral disease caused by human papillomavirus (HPV), is the most common benign neoplasm of the larynx among children and the second most frequent cause of infantile hoarseness. The course of the disease is variable; some patients experience spontaneous remission, while others may develop an aggressive respiratory compromise. Especially juvenile-onset RRP cases experience shorter intervals between surgical interventions and thus more surgeries overall, causing high rates of depression and voice-related quality of life.
