Quantifiable features of a tidal breathing phenotype in dogs with severe bronchomalacia diagnosed by bronchoscopy [PDF]
Dynamic lower airway obstruction is the primary component of canine bronchomalacia, but the ventilatory function remains underinvestigated. This prospective study analyzed tidal breathing characteristics in 28 dogs, comprising 14 with severe ...

Clinical Relevance of Distinguishing Between Three Endoscopy-Based Conditions, Bronchiectasis, Bronchomalacia, and Their Combination in Dogs: A Retrospective Study [PDF]
Bronchiectasis (BE) and bronchomalacia (BM) are chronic respiratory diseases in dogs, yet their combined occurrence (BEBM) is not well studied. This retrospective study analyzed 65 dogs diagnosed via endoscopy with BE, BM, or BEBM (E-BE, E-BM, E-BEBM) to

Multimodality imaging in a child with complete atrioventricular canal defect, left superior vena cava, and airway compression: Echocardiography, bronchoscopy, and lung ultrasound insights [PDF]
Congenital heart disease may coexist with airway abnormalities, increasing perioperative risk. We report a 2-year-old girl with a complete atrioventricular canal defect (CAVCD), left superior vena cava (LSVC), and severe pulmonary hypertension, in whom ...

No Correlation Between Chronic Cough and Radiographic Signs of Bronchial Narrowing in Dogs with Cardiomegaly and Left Atrial Dilation Secondary to Primary Mitral Valve Regurgitation [PDF]
Background: Some dogs with severe mitral valve regurgitation can have chronic cough, but its cause is unclear. Many of these dogs exhibit left principal (synonym mainstem) bronchial collapse or compression. Some clinicians believe that an enlarged heart,

Proposed treatment algorithms for dogs with chronic bronchitis associated with irreversible airway changes: bronchiectasis and/or bronchomalacia [PDF]
Chronic bronchitis (CB) in dogs involves persistent inflammation of the bronchial walls and excessive mucus production within the airways, with or without bronchial infection, and may lead to degenerative airway changes such as bronchiectasis (BE) and ...

Atypical infantile form of scimitar syndrome with bronchomalacia. [PDF]
A male infant presenting with severe heart failure and respiratory distress was diagnosed with a hypoplastic right lung, scimitar syndrome with pulmonary sequestration and multiple anomalous systemic arteries, left bronchomalacia, a large atrial septal defect and coarctation of the aorta. The infant underwent a successful combined treatment of surgical
