Abstract |
Cryosurgery has proven effective in managing malignant tracheobronchial tumors, yet its role in benign lesions is not well established. A case of isolated tracheal papillomas recurring 15 years following laser surgery is reported. Cryosurgery allowed improvement in symptoms and adequate control of the papillomas.
