Abstract
There are many treatments of benign laryngeal papilloma. It is exceedingly difficult to control because of rapid recurrence after removal. In this report, two cases of with laryngeal papilloma effectively treated with interferon were presented. Case 1 was not controlled with the repeated laser surgery, but was cured by local injections of three million units of α-interferon followed by resection. Case 2 underwent local injection of β-interferon and resection. The laryngeal papilloma completely disappeared. The results indicated that local laryngeal injection of interferon was useful in the treatment of laryngeal papilloma.
