Title: Novel method of intralesional cidofovir injection into laryngotracheal papillomata. Author: Sahota RS, Uddin FJ, Al-Shukri J, Moir AA. Journal: J Laryngol Otol; 2011 Apr; 125(4):402-4. PubMed ID: 21281536. Abstract: Laryngeal papillomatosis is characterised by multiple papillomata affecting the upper respiratory tract. This condition is difficult to treat due to its recurrent nature. Treatment often involves surgical debulking. A number of non-surgical treatments have been reported. Intralesional cidofovir, a cytosine nucleoside analogue with antiviral activity, has been used in an attempt to manage the condition. We present a novel technique of administering cidofovir in a case of recurrent laryngotracheal papillomata.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
