title: Recurring laryngeal papillopa.
abstract: A prospective study of 31 children born of mothers with condylomata acuminata at parturition or during pregnancy was undertaken to test the hypothesis that laryngeal papilloma could be associated with venereal warts and could be acquired perinatally. None of the children born of mothers with condylomas at delivery or during their pregnancies had developed symptoms, signs, or observable lesions of laryngeal papilloma, whether delivered vaginally or by cesarean section. Nevertheless we do not know the true incidence of this disease or the infectivity of the causative micro-organism. Although it appears that the correlation between laryngeal papilloma in children and the presence of condylomata acuminata in the mother during pregnancy or parturition is not as strong as our retrospective study had suggested, it should not be disregarded.
