"Can Mumps Vaccine Induce Remission in Recurrent Respiratory Papilloma?" Archives of Otolaryngology--Head and Neck Surgery Online (archotol.ama-assn.org/) (07/01/02) Vol. 128, No. 7,; Pashley, Nigel R.T.
Eleven children with recurrent respiratory papilloma (RRP) were selected for a trial examining the use of laser excision and locally injected mumps vaccine to cause remission of the disease. The early trial employed laser excision alone for one year, while a later study with 18 children and 20 adults employed the laser excision with adjuvant therapy. All of the patients went through laser excision of papilloma followed by locally injected mumps vaccine, with remission only declared after two consecutive disease-free intervals and a follow-up of at least one year, determined by microphotographs of the larynx and trachea. The study of 11 children resulted in remission in nine patients, or 82 percent, by 1 to 10 injections, with follow-up of five years to 19 years. The study of 38 patients showed remission in 29 of them, or 76 percent, between four injections and 26 injections, with follow-up of two years to five years. The studies indicate that injection with mumps vaccine following laser excision is a positive factor in the remission of RRP in children. ALL INFORMATION, DATA, AND

 "A foolish faith in authority is the worst enemy of truth." -- Albert Einstein, letter to a friend, 1901 "I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves, and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education." -- Thomas Jefferson, letter to William C. Jarvis, September 28, 1820 "What's the point of vaccination if it doesn't protect you from the unvaccinated?" -- Sandy Gottstein "Who gets to decide what the greater good is and how many will be sacrificed to it?" -- Sandy Gottstein |
