We present the case of a 64-year-old patient with a history of papillomas in the trachea and bronchi, treated with endobronchial cryotherapy.

Article Synopsis
  • Infection with low-risk HPV types 6 and 11 can cause recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JoRRP) in children, which leads to benign growths in the larynx.
  • A systematic review studied the effects of national HPV vaccination programs on the incidence and prevalence of JoRRP, analyzing data from four studies that included 622 patients from countries like Australia, New Zealand, and the U.S.
  • Results showed a significant decline in JoRRP cases after vaccination, with higher vaccination rates linking to lower disease burden, highlighting the importance of widespread HPV vaccination for future health outcomes.
