The authors report the case of a 30-year-old man suffering from juvenile laryngeal papillomatosis, recurrent since the age of 4. 23 years later, multiple round opacities were found in the lungs, progressing slowly to excavation. Bronchoscopy with broncho-aspiration provided histological confirmation of the diagnosis of broncho-alveolar spread of the papillomatosis, made on the basis of plain films and tomography.
