Systemic and Intralesional Bevacizumab in Juvenile Onset Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis: A Report of Two Cases

Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a stubborn disease. Despite volumes of researches done for a definite cause and management, the scientific community offers only theories for causation and options for treatments. Bevacizumab has emerged as a promising solution to the fear of sufferers of RRP of undergoing repeated surgeries. The patients who received bevacizumab, either systemically or intralesionally, show decreased need for surgeries mostly and even remission in a few. Till date there are limited studies of use of bevacizumab, in adults, but only reports of its use in pediatric population. This is a report of two cases of juvenile onset RRP with use of systemic bevacizumab infusion in a child and intralesional injection in an adult.
