  • Title: Microdebrider removal of tracheal papilloma via tracheostomy in the child with an obliterated larynx.
    Author: Ulualp SO, Ryan MW, Wright ST.
    Journal: J Laryngol Otol; 2007 Nov; 121(11):1070-2. PubMed ID: 17419899.
    Abstract:
    In children, recurrent respiratory papillomatosis is the most common benign neoplasm of the airway. The disease frequently involves the larynx and may spread to extralaryngeal sites. Use of a microdebrider has been suggested as a safe and low-cost technique which reduces operating time, compared with laser removal of laryngeal lesions. We describe a technique for using a microdebrider to remove tracheal papillomas when the larynx is obliterated with the disease.
