ملخص البحث

A retrospective study of the complications of treatment with the carbon dioxide (CO
2) laser of 17 patients diagnosed to be suffering from recurrent laryngeal papillomatosis is
presented. No immediate complications occurred except one case of laryngospasm and
failure to intubate during anaesthesia leading to hypoxic encephalopathy. Three patients
were completely free from disease and complications. Another patient was free from
laryngeal lesions but developed a papilloma in the right tonsillar pillar.
