Abstrakt: The type of human papilloma virus (HPV) was determined in 26 children aged between 1 year 10 months to 15 years 5 months suffering from recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). Polymerase chain reaction identified DNA of HPV type 6, 11, 16 and 18. HPV DNA was detected in all the patients including fifteen patients infected with HPV type 11; seven patients infected with HPV type 6; four children infected with HPV type 6 and 11. Types 16 and 18 of HPV were not detected. The analysis of RRP course has found that laryngeal papillomatosis runs a more aggressive course in cases with HPV type 11 infection than in those with HPV type 6.
