“…The reported prognosis for dogs suffering from laryngeal collapse appears to be variable. Many individuals with stage I collapse show a marked improvement following saccule resection, partial staphylectomy and nasal alaplasty surgery (Harvey 1982a, Lorinson and others 1997, Torrez and Hunt 2006, Riecks and others 2007, Trostel and Frankel 2010). On the other hand, dogs suffering from stage II or III laryngeal collapse are often considered to carry a very guarded prognosis with aryepiglottic fold resection, permanent tracheostomy or euthanasia cited as the only options for management (Harvey 1982b, Hedlund 2002, Monnet 2003, Pink and others 2006).…”

“…Assessment of the upper airways under general anaesthesia revealed breed-associated elongation of the soft palate, bilateral laryngocoele and stenotic nares in dog 1, therefore staphylectomy, removal of the everted saccules and punch resection alaplasty was performed (Rostel 2010). Dog 2 also demonstrated contrast.…”

This case report describes three brachycephalic dogs with intranasal epidermoid cysts that were causing additional upper airway obstruction. Although epidermoid cysts have been described in several locations in dogs, to the authors' knowledge intranasal epidermoid cysts have not been previously reported. All dogs had mucopurulent to haemorrhagic nasal discharge. Magnetic resonance imaging of the head revealed the presence of unilateral or bilateral intranasal cystic lesions obstructing the nasal cavities partially or completely, with atrophy of the ipsilateral nasal turbinates. The cystic lesions were surgically excised in all dogs using a modified lateral alveolar mucosal approach to the affected nasal cavity. Aerobic, anaerobic and fungal culture of the cystic contents were negative and histology of the excised tissue was consistent with a benign intranasal epidermoid cyst in each dog. Upper airway obstruction was clinically improved in two dogs.

“…A técnica para excisão dos sáculos ou saculectomia consiste na amputação dos mesmos HUGHES, et al, 2018) e pode ser feita utilizando-se tesouras Metzenbaum devido a localização anatômica dos sáculos (ALLEMAND et al, 2013). Uma vez corrigidos, permitem uma maior abertura da rima da glote permitindo melhor a passagem do ar (TORREZ; HUNT, 2006;RIECKS et al, 2007;TROSTEL;FRANKEL, 2010). Entretanto, recentemente, um estudo realizado por Hughes et al (2018), concluiu que a saculectomia apesar de trazer resultados favoráveis pode também, resultar em complicações de leves a graves no pós-operatório imediato, o que sugere que a indicação de executar a técnica deve ser antes ponderadamente analisada.…”

Artificial selective breeding of man-induced breeds of dogs and cats has had major impacts mainly on the welfare of these animals. Although it spawned a wide variety of breeds, the modifications made in their anatomical structures inevitably entailed physiological and behavioral changes in some canine and feline breeds, bringing great consequences to them. By interfering in the anatomical conformation of the skull bones of dogs and cats by modifying the shape and size of the head, there is a narrowing of the airways, making it difficult to pass air. Consequently, respiratory disorders affected the animals with short snout causing the Brachycephalic Airway Obstruction Syndrome (Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome-BOAS) or Brachycephalic Syndrome. This syndrome is characterized mainly by disorders of the airways, which lead to the obstruction of the same of progressive form. The abnormalities that compose them are composed of anatomical changes classified as primary and secondary that can be treated if identified, although not all of them can be corrected surgically. It is a progressive disease, leading to secondary changes that may be irreversible to the animal. Such changes are consequences of a process of chronic obstruction caused by the primary abnormalities of the syndrome. Due to the importance of its knowledge by the veterinarian, this work aimed to perform a literature review aimed mainly at the main anatomical abnormalities of the airways that contribute to the Brachycephalic Airway Obstructive Syndrome, and their respective surgical indications.
