title: Surgical management of pulmonary carcinoma secondary to recurrent respiratory papillomatosis.
abstract: Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis is a rare, but acknowledged, risk factor for pulmonary squamous cell carcinoma. Although previous reports suggest a poor prognosis for lung cancer associated with papillomatosis, we have successfully treated 1 such patient, who presented with three synchronous pulmonary malignancies, using parenchyma-sparing resection techniques.
