Gardasil Vaccination for Recurrent Laryngeal Papillomatosis in Adult Men Second Report: Negative Conversion of HPV in Laryngeal Secretions

The HPV-DNA test showed negative conversion in eight of 11 (72.7%) patients after vaccination. Residual laryngeal papillomas were found in five of 11 (45.5%) patients. The serum HPV antibody titer did not differ significantly between the group in which laryngeal secretions showed HPV negative conversion and the group in which conversion did not occur. The serum antibody titer did not differ significantly as a function of whether there were residual tumors.
