Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a rare condition characterized by recurrent growth of papilloma in the respiratory tract. RRP is caused by human papilloma virus. Its incidence is 4 per 100,000 children. Vertical transmission of the virus during gestation or during delivery is the major route of contracting the disease in children. One hundred and thirty different human papilloma virus types have been identified. Types 6 and 11 are involved in RRP and type 11 develops more aggressive disease with recurrence and progression to the respiratory tract and also nasopharyngeal surface. We present a 7 year old boy with diagnosis of RRP based on radiology and endoscopy.
复发性呼吸道乳头状瘤病（RRP）是一种罕见疾病，其特征为呼吸道中乳头状瘤反复生长。RRP由人乳头瘤病毒引起。其发病率为每10万名儿童中有4例。病毒在妊娠期或分娩期间的垂直传播是儿童感染该疾病的主要途径。已鉴定出130种不同的人乳头瘤病毒类型。6型和11型与人RRP有关，11型会引发更具侵袭性的疾病，出现复发并蔓延至呼吸道及鼻咽部表面。我们报告一名7岁男孩，根据放射学和内镜检查诊断为RRP。
