Any child presenting with a voice disturbance with or without stridor is recommended to have diagnostic flexible fiber-optic laryngoscopy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Among adults, the disease may be associated with oral-genital contact. 1 Affected children usually present with hoarseness and occasionally with stridor, cough, or recurrent pneumonia. [appliedradiology.com]
Entire Body System
- Crying
Papillomas are suspected when parents notice hoarseness, a weak cry, or other changes in the child’s voice. Papillomas reappear often and occasionally spread into the windpipe (trachea) and lungs, blocking the airway. [merckmanuals.com]
Five patients, aged 2 to 6 years, were erroneously diagnosed with recurrent croup, asthma, laryngeal hemangioma, and tracheomalacia after presenting with variable degrees of chronic dyspnea, cough, stridor, dysphonia, weak cry, and syncope. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Respiratoric
- Hoarseness
In our patients the most frequent symptoms were hoarseness and dyspnea, revealing obstructive compromise of the airway by the papillomata. [elsevier.pt]
Papillomas are suspected when parents notice hoarseness, a weak cry, or other changes in the child’s voice. Papillomas reappear often and occasionally spread into the windpipe (trachea) and lungs, blocking the airway. [merckmanuals.com]
After surgical removal, the patient’s voice is commonly hoarse; however, they will be able to speak with greater amplitude than before. Unfortunately, in most cases, the growths will continue to reoccur after surgical removal. [ohniww.org]
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis is a relatively uncommon disease that presents clinically with symptoms ranging from hoarseness to severe dyspnea. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Urogenital
- Cesarean Section
This child did not have the usual risk factors for recurrent respiratory papillomatosis, being the second child born by cesarean section to a mother without history of condyloma. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In a study using data collected by the RRP Foundation, it was found that the number of JORRP patients born via cesarean section was less than 25% of the statistically expected number based on national normals, suggesting that a cesarean birth might play [rrpf.org]

HPV is thought to be acquired at the time of vaginal delivery in the presence of genital lesions, and patients typically present with symptoms of hoarseness or respiratory obstruction in childhood or adolescence. [nature.com]
Neurologic

Clinical Testing and Workup An indirect laryngoscopy involves holding a small mirror in the back of the throat. An ENT physician will reflect light off the mirror to illuminate the throat and detect the presence of papillomas. [rarediseases.org]
If advancing degrees of atypia are found, closer observation and further workup is mandated. CLINICAL PRESENTATION The initial disease presentation and subsequent clinical course in adult RRP compared with childhood-onset RRP is markedly different. [journals.lww.com]
X-Ray
- Atelectasis
Changes secondary to pulmonary papillomatosis included atelectasis, infection and bronchiectasis. Respiratory papillomatosis involving pulmonary parenchyma is associated with a poor prognostic outcome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Enlargement of a previously described lesion and mediastinal lymphadenopathy should increase the suspicion of malignancy. 6 In addition, parenchymal complications, such as pneumonia, abscess, and atelectasis, can be seen. [appliedradiology.com]
Treatment
This additional treatment can be performed either in the operating room along with KTP laser treatment or, in many patients, as an office-based procedure. [northshore.org]

Therefore, we designed the scheduled protocol for treatment of RRP with increasing treatment intervals. The dose was kept at 1 mg/kg but after 4 treatments at 2-week intervals, each subsequent treatment interval was increased by 1 week. [dx.doi.org]
Prognosis
Prognosis The prognosis is often good and morbidity low in most cases. Younger children, especially those under the age of 3 years, and adults with HPV-11 infection generally experience a more severe disease course. [orpha.net]
Although previous reports suggest a poor prognosis for lung cancer associated with papillomatosis, we have successfully treated 1 such patient, who presented with three synchronous pulmonary malignancies, using parenchyma-sparing resection techniques. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
What is the prognosis/outlook? Because there is no cure yet, the prognosis is guarded. Patients can certainly live full lives, but often require repeated procedures over time to remove the growths. [chicagovoicecare.com]
Etiology
The etiology, medical and physical therapeutic management, anesthetic management, and complications of patients with RRP are presented. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Epidemiology
A literature search was performed to characterize the epidemiology, imaging findings and management of this condition. The patient underwent 30 courses of surgery over 21 years and presented disseminated pulmonary papilloma after childbirth. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology
The peer-reviewed literature was culled to provide a comprehensive review encompassing AO-RRP and anogenital papilloma, as well as general HPV virology and pathophysiology. PubMed and Google Scholar databases were searched from 1975 to July 2014. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology HPV, the virus associated with cutaneous warts, genital condyloma, and cervical cancer, causes RRP. While more than 20 types of HPV can cause genital warts, only 2 of these, HPV-6 and HPV-11, cause the vast majority of cases of RRP. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Functionally, these groupings correlate with their tissue preference as well as similar pathophysiology. 16 The HPVs are members of a large family of papillomaviruses that infect vertebrates ranging from birds to humans, causing epithelial neoplasms that [clinicalgate.com]
Prevention
Although cesarean section may prevent the exposure of children to the HPV virus during childbirth, its effectiveness in preventing RRP is debatable and the procedure itself carries an increased risk of complications. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In severe cases, anti-viral medications are used in conjunction with surgical removal to help prevent the regrowth of papilloma. These medications include Interferon and Cidofovir, which prevent the growths from copying themselves and growing. [ohniww.org]
Prevention: HPV vaccine The HPV vaccine is effective in preventing the virus that causes recurrent respiratory papillomas. [chop.edu]
