[Clinical study of tracheotomies children with juvenile onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis].
OBJECTIVE
To analysis the clinical characteristics of tracheotomies children with Juvenile-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JORRP) and to discuss the time of decannulation.


METHODS
Thirty-one children with JORRP, who underwent tracheotomy and treated with CO2 laser in Otorhinolaryngology department of Tongren Hospital between 1993 and 2005, were reviewed in this essay. We analysis the age, the site of intratracheal papilloma, invasion fashion of lesion, et al.


RESULTS
Thirty-one tracheotomies children underwent 32 tracheotomy, 20 cases was decannulated. Among the 32 tracheotomies cases, three cases were decannulated in 1 month post operation and the intratracheal lesions were not found. There were presented intratracheal lesions in 29 cases. Intratracheal lesions were not presented in 20 cases after three months of decannulation.


CONCLUSIONS
The tracheotomy should strive to be avoided to JORRP patients. If a JORRP patient was underwent tracheotomy, he should be decannulated as early as possible. The time of decannulation was performed in the operation or post operation when the intratracheal lesions was less.
