Abstract:Summary
Reasons for performing study: Laryngoplasty is the technique of choice for treatment of laryngeal hemiplegia, with the aim of improving airway function and/or eliminating respiratory noise. However, there are no quantitative data in the literature describing the effect of laryngoplasty on upper airway noise or its relationship to upper airway mechanics in horses with laryngeal hemiplegia.
Objectives: To determine whether laryngoplasty reduces respiratory noise in exercising horses with laryngeal hemi… Show more
“…This method of evaluation is distinctly subjective in nature, and assumes a tight correlation between respiratory noise and airway obstruction. In fact, in horses with experimentally induced laryngeal hemiplegia, the correlation between residual airway obstruction following prosthetic laryngoplasty and residual noise is weak (Brown et al 2004). Therefore, the residual noise during exercise cannot be used as a predictor of improvement in upper airway function in individual horses following laryngoplasty.…”

“…Also, the success of this surgery for returning horses to racing has been well documented (Witte et al 2009). Prosthetic laryngoplasty reduces upper airway noise in horses with laryngeal hemiplegia, but is not as effective as bilateral ventriculocordectomy in this regard (Brown et al 2004). However, respiratory noise reduction occurs more rapidly than with bilateral ventriculocordectomy.…”

“…arış performansını olumsuz yönde etkileyen larengeal hemipleji, safkan ırklar başta olmak üzere bir çok yarış atı ırkında tanımlanmaktadır (1)(2)(3)(4).…”
Öz: Yarış performansı yönünden olumsuz etkileri bulunan larengeal hemipleji, birçok yarış atında tanımlanmaktadır. Bu olgu sunumlarıyla; taylarda üst solunum yolu hastalığını takiben muhtemel komplikasyon olarak şekillenmiş larengeal hemipleji vurgulanmaktadır. Geçmişinde üst solunum yolu enfeksiyonu ilişkili şikayetlerle tedavi edilmiş safkan arap tayları, inspiratorik gürültülü solunum sesi ve egzersiz intolerans anamneziyle muayene edildi. Genel muayene ve tam kan sayımları normal olan hastaların endoskopik değerlendirmelerinde grade III sol larengeal hemipleji teşhis edildi. Hastaların özafagoskopisinde patoloji belirlenmedi. Hastaların her ikisinde de aritenoid kıkırdaklarda kollaps görülmedi. Larengeal hemipleji için operatif uygulamalar kabul edilmedi. Sonuç olarak; üst solunum yolu enfeksiyonu geçirmiş taylarda larengeal hemipleji olguları tanımlanmıştır.Anahtar Kelimeler: Hemipleji, Larenks, Solunum, Tay.
Left Laryngeal Hemiplegia Cases in Two FoalsAbstract: Laryngeal hemiplegia having negative effects on race performance has been defined in most racehorses. The cases presented here point out the laryngeal hemiplegia following upper airway disease in foals as a possible complication. Thoroughbred Arabians foals (having a previous treatment for the symptoms of upper airway infection) with a history of inspiratory whistling/roaring noise and exercise intolerance were examined. Endoscopic applications revealed grade III left laryngeal hemiplegia in cases with normal general health status and complete blood count. Esophagoscopy revealed no visible pathologic changes. There is also no evidence of arytenoid collapse in both cases. Surgery of laryngeal hemiplegia was not approved. The cases presented here reflect the laryngeal hemiplegia following upper airway disease in foals.
“…Elle est habituellement effectuée sous anesthésie générale avec le cheval positionné en décubitus latéral. Cette technique a été initialement décrite en 1970 (Marks et al 1970) et les résultats ont été objectivés par des études expé-rimentales (Brown et al 2004 ;Rakesh et al 2008). La perte d'abduction pendant la période post-opératoire immédiate ainsi que l'apparition de toux associée à des degrés variables de dysphagie, sont les complications les plus fréquemment rencontrées après cette procédure (Dixon et al 2003 ;Froydendund et al 2014 ;Biasutti et al 2016).…”

“…La perte d'abduction pendant la période post-opératoire immédiate ainsi que l'apparition de toux associée à des degrés variables de dysphagie, sont les complications les plus fréquemment rencontrées après cette procédure (Dixon et al 2003 ;Froydendund et al 2014 ;Biasutti et al 2016). La laryngoplastie est associée à une ventriculectomie (VE) uni ou bilatérale ou à une ventriculo-cordectomie (VCE) dans le but de réduire le bruit inspiratoire (Brown et al 2004;Robinson et al 2006). La chronologie des deux interventions pour optimiser l'efficacité de la laryngoplastie a également été étudiée (Perkins et al 2011).…”
Une ventriculo-cordectomie uni ou bilatérale par laser, suivie d'une laryngoplastie, a été effectuée sous contrôle endoscopique chez des chevaux tranquillisés avec désensibilisation du site chirurgical par une anesthésie locale. La laryngoplastie a été bien tolérée sans aucune hyperabduction du cartilage aryténoïde paralysé. Les complications telles que toux, dysphagie et les complications de plaie sont survenues dans un nombre minimal de chevaux. L'analyse des résultats à long terme a montré une résolution des signes cliniques respiratoires chez environ 95 % des chevaux. La laryngoplastie effectuée chez le cheval debout permet d'éviter les risques associés à l'anesthésie générale et au réveil et donne des résultats au moins équivalents à à ceux de la laryngoplastie réalisée sous anesthésie générale. L'avantage principal de cette technique est de permettre un ajustement peropératoire précis du degré d'abduction du cartilage aryténoïde.
