Abstract
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) of the larynx represents a significant disease burden to patients and the healthcare system The use of HPV 6/11/16/18 vaccination (Gardasil® ) has previously been thought to impact on disease burden in patients with RRP. Gardasil® vaccination did not impact on the number of endolaryngeal surgical procedures required, the interval between procedures, or the number of patients who achieved disease remission in comparison to a control cohort. This study indicates Gardasil® vaccination does not appear to have any effect on disease burden in patients with RRP. The use of a control cohort profiles the natural progression of RRP.
