A 2-year-old boy in Hangzhou, China, grew slower than other children of the same age due to long-term poor sleep, and his voice became hoarse. Therefore, his family immediately sent him to the hospital for examination. Unexpectedly, after the doctor’s examination, it was found that the boy had a large lump in his throat, and it was confirmed that he was infected with the HPV virus, and the source of the infection was his mother.
According to a Lu media report, a 2-year-old boy in Hangzhou, China, often wakes up when he sleeps, and suffers from long-term poor sleep. As a result, his growth and development indicators have been lagging behind his peers. And his voice became hoarse day by day, so the family immediately sent him to the hospital for examination.
According to the doctor’s examination, it was found that the boy had a lump in his throat that looked like a “cauliflower”. The lump was red and the surface was uneven.
The doctor said that the lump had grown very large and occupied a large space in the boy’s throat, which was also the main reason for his hoarse voice. If the operation is not performed immediately, as the mass increases day by day, it will further lead to shortness of breath, which will directly affect the boy’s growth and development. The doctor immediately performed a lumpectomy on the boy, and the lump was successfully removed after half an hour.
Unexpectedly, when the pathology report came out, everyone was surprised. According to the report, the lump in the boy’s throat turned out to be laryngeal papilloma, a common benign tumor. It may occur at any age, but it is more common in children under 10 years old, and juvenile type occurs before 5 years old, and most of them are related to infection with papilloma (HPV) virus.
After being questioned by the doctor, the boy’s mother revealed that she had been infected with HPV virus in the past, so she transmitted the virus to her baby during pregnancy, which caused this situation to happen.
