U.S. Statement of Demonstrated Ability Aeromedical Waivers.

abstract：:BACKGROUND: Although oropharyngeal squamous cell papilloma (OSCP) is not uncommon in the general population, reports of OSCP in aviators are rare. This case report serves as a call for flight surgeons to consider all oropharyngeal pathology as a potential source of airway compromise during flight, and highlights regio...
