Laryngeal papillomatosis

Laryngeal papillomatosis is a rare medical condition, caused by an HPV infection of the throat. It causes assorted tumors, papillomas, to develop over a period of time. This condition obstructs the airway, and without treatment, it is potentially fatal.

  • Carbon dioxide laser surgery: "no touch" removal of affected tissue.
  • Tracheotomy: rereouting of air around the affected area.
  • Photodynamic therapy: controls tumors by using targeted dyes to irradiate any cancerous tissue.
  • Chemotherapy
  • Antibiotics
