Abstract
To evaluate the incidence of laryngeal papillomatosis (LP) and LP recurrence in adults and to determine the risk factors for the development of LP recurrence in adults in Moscow. To solve the tasks set, a survey of patients carried out, including the collection of complaints and anamnesis, a standard examination of the ENT organs, an assessment of the condition of the larynx, and a histological examination. We conducted a retrospective analysis of the case histories of 299 patients with LP observed and treated at the Sverzhevsky Research and Clinical Institute of Otorhinolaryngology in the period 2010-2020. On average, over the entire study period, the prevalence of PG was 17.80%. It was found that out of 299 patients, 69.6% (n=208) had a relapse of LP. Papilloma of the larynx were more often localized in the glottis. 275 (92%) patients had a widespread form of LP. LP recurrences were significantly more common in women and in patients with an existing cicatricle process in the larynx. The relapse rate was higher in non-smokers (73.5% vs 47.8%; p<0.001). Although the recurrence rate was higher in patients with non-voice occupations (70.6% vs. 52.9%), there was no statistically significant association between relapses and the vocal professions (p=0.125). As a result of the study, a number of risk factors for laryngeal papillomatosis recurrent have been identified, and their study should be continued.
