| 中文描述 | 氣管塌陷在狗是一種常見的疾病。背腹部的塌陷比兩側發生的常見。先天性的氣管塌陷可能因為進胸處的氣管環發生畸形而造成,而後天形成的則尚不清楚。中年或老年的玩賞犬或小型犬容易發生。通常包含了頸部和胸部的氣管。次級的氣管炎也常發生。咳嗽通常是由氣管受到壓力所引起。很少發生在貓。 |
| 英文描述 | Collapsing trachea is a common canine disorder. Dorsoventral collapse is more common than lateral in dogs. A congenital form might be due to malformation of the tracheal rings at the thoracic inlet. Cause of the acquired form is unknown. Middle- and old-aged toy or miniature breeds are predisposed. Usually the cervical and thoracic trachea are both involved. Secondary tracheitis is common. A cough can generally be elicited by tracheal pressure. Rare in cats. |
