Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (RRP) Overview

Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a rare, chronic benign neoplastic disease of the respiratory tract caused by human papillomavirus — predominantly HPV subtypes 6 and 11 — characterised by recurrent growth of exophytic papillomatous lesions along the aerodigestive epithelium, with the larynx most frequently affected. HPV 11 is associated with more aggressive disease, higher surgical burden, and increased risk of distal tracheobronchial and pulmonary spread. Juvenile-onset RRP typically results from vertical perinatal transmission, while adult-onset disease is predominantly sexually acquired. Patients present with progressive dysphonia, hoarseness, stridor, and — in severe or neglected cases — life-threatening airway compromise; diagnosis is established endoscopically with histopathological confirmation. No curative therapy currently exists; surgical debulking via microlaryngoscopy with cold steel or laser excision, or increasingly KTP and pulsed-dye laser techniques, remains the primary management strategy to maintain airway patency and voice quality, with disease recurrence necessitating repeated interventions. Adjuvant bevacizumab — an anti-VEGF agent — has demonstrated meaningful reduction in surgical frequency in aggressive disease. Cidofovir and interferon-alfa retain adjunctive roles in refractory cases. Emerging data support the potential disease-modifying role of HPV vaccination in reducing recurrence burden. Prognosis varies considerably with HPV subtype and disease aggressiveness; multidisciplinary airway management, regular endoscopic surveillance, and psychological support addressing the substantial procedural and quality-of-life burden are integral to patient-centred long-term care.
