Long‐term Outcomes of Juvenile Onset Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis with Pulmonary Involvement

xlomafota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader

Objective

To investigate the clinical characteristics and long‐term outcomes of juvenile onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JORRP) with or without pulmonary involvement.

Methods

A group of patients with JORRP who had clinical course over an extended period of time (at least 5 years) in the Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Beijing Tongren Hospital were included in this retrospective study. Lung/bronchus involvement was revealed by lung imaging. Data on mortality rate, frequency of surgical interventions, and age of disease onset were collected and analyzed.

Results

The 192 patients (107 male and 85 female) included had a median [quartiles] age of JORRP onset of 2 [1, 4] years, and median follow‐up duration of 10 [7, 13] years; 17 patients (8.9%) had papilloma with bronchial and pulmonary involvement 7.0 [4.0, 12.5] years after the onset of the disease. Compared to patients without lung involvement, patients with lung involvement had a younger age of disease onset (P = .001), higher frequency of surgical interventions (P < .001), higher mortality rate (OR = 94.909), and an increased risk of tracheotomy that could not be decannulated (P < .001). They also had a younger age of disease onset, and a higher frequency of surgical interventions and mortality compared to patients with tracheotomy but free from lung involvement (P < .001).

Conclusions

Children with JORRP and with pulmonary involvement have a higher average number of operations per year than those without pulmonary involvement, and pulmonary involvement indicates a higher incidence of tracheotomy that cannot be decannulated.
