Introduction<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tracheal collapse occurs frequently in small breeds. Both the intrathoracic and extrathoracic portions may be affected, also extending into the main bronchus.<\/p>\n

Its aetiology lies in a deficiency in the cartilage matrix, which results in a collapse of the tracheal lumen.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Diagnosis<\/strong><\/p>\n

I) Clinical signs: cough, severe cough after exercise-excitation, syncope after coughing episode, hyperthermia, moderate to severe respiratory distress.<\/p>\n

II) Cervical – thoracic, lateral and dorsoventral radiographs: – Inspiration: a narrowing of the extrathoracic tracheal portion and a widening of the intrathoracic portion can be seen on the lateral radiograph. – Exhalation: the lateral X-ray shows a dilatation of the cervical-extrathoracic portion and a narrowing of the intrathoracic portion.<\/p>\n

III) Fluoroscopy<\/p>\n

IV) Bronchoscopy<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Emergency management and treatment<\/strong><\/p>\n

I) Oxygen therapy and sedation (butorphanol and\/or acepromazine).<\/p>\n

II) Anti-inflammatory doses of corticosteroids: 0.5 mg\/kg IV methylprednisone.<\/p>\n

III) Terbutaline 0.01 mg\/kg IV, SC<\/p>\n

IV) Active cooling of the patient if temperature > 39.5\u00baC.<\/p>\n

V) Patients who must be intubated and cannot be extubated due to further collapse each time it is attempted are candidates for emergency surgery or tracheal stenting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
