Abstract

Tracheal collapse at the thoracic inlet is described in a 4 year-old female yorkshire terrier. The initial presenting signs included coughing, dyspnea, cyanosis and collapse. Diagnosis was based upon the clinical signs, physical examination, plain radiography and fluoroscopy. The collapse was corrected by the aplication of a neumber of modified total ring prostheses (m-TRP) applied to the cervical trachea. Clinical complicatons were minimal and limited to mild, short-term coughing. The present study indicated that m-TRP were easy to apply to tracheal collapse and were able to decrese clinical signs. Therefore, m-TRP may be applied to tracheal collapse as new prostheses.
