ABSTRACT
Laryngeal papilloma is the most common tumor of the larynx, and it is often recurrent and difficult to cure. To date, surgical excision, irradiation, ultrasound, cryosurgery and various kinds of drug therapy such as antibiotics, hormones, vaccines, podophyllin, bleomycin, 5-FU etc., have been utilized. Recently, lasers instead of surgical resection, and interferon considered effective in viral diseases are being used by more and more surgeons.
The authors have treated 29 laryngeal papilloma cases with CO2 laser surgery alone or a combination of CO2 laser and interferon therapy.
Keywords: Laryngeal papilloma; CO2 laser; Interferon
