  • Title: Surgical Treatment of Laryngeal Paralysis.
    Author: Monnet E.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract; 2016 Jul; 46(4):709-17. PubMed ID: 26947115.
    Abstract:
    Unilateral arytenoid lateralization is the most commonly used technique to treat laryngeal paralysis. It is important not to overabduct the arytenoid cartilage during the unilateral lateralization to minimize exposure of the rima glottides. Dogs with laryngeal paralysis treated with unilateral lateralization have a good long-term prognosis. Idiopathic polyneuropathy is the most common cause of laryngeal paralysis in dogs.
