Novel human papilloma virus (HPV) genotypes in children with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis.
2010
Introduction
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is characterized by the presence of benign virally induced tumors of the larynx and respiratory epithelium that may obstruct the airway and tend to recur frequently. RRP is caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV), most frequently by HPV types 6 and 11. In this study, we present four cases of children with RRP in whom HPVs other than HPV-6 or HPV-11 were found.
