A total of 31 cases of laryngeal papilloma in children in the 42 year period between 1952 and 1994 have been collected in this article. There are 18 males and 13 females, the medium age is 5. The shortest course was 3 days, and the average course was 10 months. Of these cases, 9 parts at the most involve pathological changes, and on average, above 3 parts. The rate of tracheotomies was approximatly 65 percent. The total cure rate and the initial cure rate were 80 percent and 67 percent respectively. As illustrated in this article, rapid development, a large affected area, a high rate of tracheotomy and cancer transformations constitute the marked clinical features of the disease. It is also noted that the disease classification should not be based on the number of operations. Furthermore, we believe it is necessary to locate tumors accurately and determine involved areas preoperatively by using modern diagnostic techniques, eliminating tumor tissue and resisting bleeding by adding laser radiation during operations, and to find and treat recurrent cases instantly through close post-operative follow-up.
