Abstract

ABSTRACT Respiratory papilloma (RP) is the most common benign neoplasm of the larynx, both in children and in adult. The etiology of recurrent respiratory papilloma is human papilloma virus (HPV), which has propensity to lay in normal epithelium, hence the high rate of recurrence. We report a case of an adult onset large glottic papilloma seen in a female with 3rd trimester pregnancy, which was excised under microscope under local anesthesia. The effect of pregnancy and latest modalities of treatment are discussed in this article. How to cite this article Mittal R, Verma H, Mathur N, Bhuie HS. Glottic Papilloma in Pregnancy.
