Abstract The carbon dioxide laser offers advantages in the treatment of recurrent laryngeal papillomatosis in small children. These advantages include precision, haemostasis and minimal surrounding tissue oedema. These patients do, however, present problems to the anaesthetist; this paper outlines a suitable anaesthetic technique and describes experience of its use in five children on 63 occasions.
