title: [The evaluation of Apneic anesthesia with intermittent ventilation for juvenile-onset recurrent laryngeal papillomatosis].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate the feasibility of Apneic anesthesia with intermittent ventilation (AAIV) during laryngeal papillomatosis removal in children.
  
  
  METHODS
  The clinical data of 30 patients with laryngeal papillomatosis treated in the Tong Ren Hospital of Capital University of Medical Sciences, between 10 - 12 2011 were analyzed. Thirty ASA physical status I or II patients who were scheduled for elective surgery. The patients were ventilated with 100% oxygen and the period of intermittent apnea were guided by pulse oximetry, the endotracheal tube was removed when SpO2 was 100% and reinserted when SpO2 was 95%.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The average duration of apnea was (232 ± 32) s. This technique provided a good visualization and immobile field for operation. No significant complications have occurred with AAIV.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Apneic anesthesia with intermittent ventilation could be used without any serious adverse outcome for juvenile-onset recurrent laryngeal papillomatosis, 232 seconds can provided for surgery every AAIV.
