  1. Large Animal Surgery Equine Respiratory Sx Guttural Pouch Diseases Amy Fayette November 2005

  2. What are the indications for surgery • Exercise intolerance • Poor performance • Abnormal resp noise • Mucopurulent nasal discharge • Serosanguineous nasal discharge • External distortion of facial region

  3. What is the most common respiratory tract diagnostic technique • Endoscopy

  4. What is your diagnosis for this soft fluctuant mass • Epidermal inclusion cyst

  5. How can you treat an epidermal inclusion cyst • Aspiration or surgery

  6. What is the problem with using aspiration • Recurrence

  7. What kind of noise is expected with redundant alar folds • Expiratory

  8. How do you diagnose redundant alar folds • Place large temporary mattress sutures and see if the noise disappears

  9. What is the treatment for redundant alar folds • Surgery

  10. What is the most common complication of surgery for redundant alar folds • Highly vascular-> hemorrhage

  11. How can you help to decrease the hemorrhage produced by this procedure • Large carmalts • Ice cold saline

  12. What is your diagnosis • Wry nose

  13. What are the clinical signs of diseases of the nasal septum • Decreased or complete obstruction • Stridor • Discharge • Facial distortion

  14. What are the preop considerations before operating on the nasal septum • Collect 4-8 L of blood • Tracheotomy

  15. What is the aftercare required for surgery of the nasal septum • 5-6 days systemic ATBs • 10 days NSAIDS • Remove packing 2 days post op • Remove tracheostomy tube • Clean and flush with saline

  16. What is your diagnosis • Ethmoid hematoma

  17. What are the CS of progressive ethmoid hematomas • Epistaxis • Serosanguinous nasal exudate • Stridor

  18. What is the suspected cause of ethmoid hematomas • Nasal gastric tubing

  19. What is this instrument • Funnel screw

  20. What is this instrument • Trephine

  21. What is the main post op complication for surgical removal of ethmoid hematomas • Hemorrhage

  22. What is an ethmoid hematoma made up of on histopath • Outer: resp epithelium • Central: hemosiderin-filled macrophages

  23. What is an alternative treatment for ethmoid hematomas • Chemical ablation with formalin

  24. What is the cause of primary sinusitis • UR tract infection

  25. What is the causes of secondary sinusitis • Dental disease • Facial fx • Cysts • Neoplasia

  26. What are the CS of sinusitis • Nasal discharge: serosanguineous • Coughing • Facial deformity

  27. What is the treatment for sinusitis • Sinusotomy (trephination)

  28. What is the aftercare instructions for sinusotomy • Leave open and flush daily • ATB and NSAIDS

  29. What is the prognosis for sinusitis after sinusotomy • Good-excellent

  30. What is this instrument • Cribbing strap

  31. What is cribbing • Grasp object with incisors • Contract neck muscles • Pull backward

  32. What is another name for cribbing • Windsucker

  33. What are the causes of cribbing • Boredom • Confinement • Isolation • Lack of roughage • Learn from others?? • Genetic??

  34. What are the consequences of cribbing • Colic ?? • Abnormal wear of incisors • Weight loss

  35. What are some non surgical treatments for cribbing • Remove fixed objects • Bitter tasting substances • Cribbing straps • Acupuncture • Shock- aversion • Naloxon

  36. What is the possible surgical treatments for cribbing • Removal of sternomandibularis, sternothyroideus, omohyoideus • Neurectomy of the ventral branch of accessory nerve

  37. What aftercare should be followed after surgery for cribbing • ATB and NSAIDS • Change the environment

  38. What dose of NSAIDS should be given • Should be a bit painful if they try to repeat the behavior so low doses

  39. What is the most common cause of noise • Recurrent laryngeal hemiplegia

  40. What is Recurrent laryngeal hemiplegia • Progresive neurogenic atrophy of the recurrent laryngeal nerve

  41. What is the signalment for Recurrent laryngeal hemiplegia • 1-10 years old • Large breed horses • Hereditary

  42. What causes Recurrent laryngeal hemiplegia • Perivascular injection • Guttural pouch mycosis • Trauma • Strangles • OP toxicity • Plant poisoning • Lead toxicity • CNS disease

  43. What is the typical history for Recurrent laryngeal hemiplegia • Noise • Exercise intolerance

  44. How is Recurrent laryngeal hemiplegia diagnosed • Palpation • Slap test • Endoscopy during treadmill exercise

  45. What is the slap test • Slap withers during endoscopy • Observe adduction of the contralateral arytenoid cartilage

  46. What is the most common surgical treatment for recurrent laryngeal hemiplegia • Laryngoplasty (Tie back)

  47. What are some potential complications with the tie back procedure • Seroma • Cough • Dysphagia

  48. What should be done if an animal is coughing following tieback • Remove sutures

  49. How can you decrease dysphagia after tie back • Feed off the ground

  50. What other surgical procedures can be performed for recurrent laryngeal hemiplegia • Ventriculectomy • Reinervation of cricoarytenoid muscle • Arytenoidectomy
