title: Oral and laryngeal papilloma: a pediatric manifestation of sexually transmitted disease?
abstract: Laryngeal and oral papilloma in pediatric patients are generally considered transmitted by maternal fetal transmission. In adults and immunocompromised patients, it is well documented that human papilloma virus (HPV) of the oropharynx is sexually transmitted. The possibility of sexual transmission of oral and laryngeal papilloma in children by oral genital contact is discussed.
