 | | This happens on inspiration when the portion of the trachea affected is in the neck region and on expiration if the trachea inside the chest itself is the problem. | | | Tracheal collapse is a condition in which the trachea partially collapses as a dog breathes, leading to tracheal irritation, coughing and sometimes secondary changes in the lungs or upper airways. | | | Veterinary Therapy XIII that advocates the use of Lomotil (Rx) but this is |

| | However, if the segment of the trachea that is within the chest cavity is abnormal, surgery is not likely to be helpful because that part is not accessible to the surgeon. | | | If the only abnormal part is that segment between the throat and the point where the trachea enters the chest (the thoracic inlet), surgery may be curative. | | | Radiographs (x-rays) of the chest can identify the trachea and its shape. |

| | There was some research done on a non-surgical procedure where a stainless steel mesh stent was placed on the inside of the trachea to force it to hold its shape, but this turned out to be a failure. | | | The initial spiral prosthesis surgical procedure has been modified to maintain blood supply to the trachea during surgery in order to reduce the likelihood of the tracheal tissue dying due to interruption of blood flow. | | | This surgery has a moderately high success rate, although it would likely be higher if the surgery option was not so often delayed until the patient was a high surgical risk. |

| | Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma (ACC): Trachea Tumor (Neoplast) Resection: Photos and Description |
| | Following the resection of the adenoid cystic carcinoma tumor (compare this image with the images of the surgery above), Krysti's chin was stitched to the chest for two weeks to prevent extension of the trachea, which could have pulled the trachea apart. | | | Side view of Krysti receiving radiation therapy; the radiation field marks are indicated by blue crosses taped to the mask. | | | Poor prognostic signs at the time of initial surgery are a solid growth pattern, perineural invasion of major nerves and/or positive margins after histopathologic examination. |

| | Collapsed Trachea |
| | Occasionally, the trachea will lose its rigidity and collapse while the dog is breathing. | | | Let's start with an explanation of how the dog breathes, The respiratory system is basically comprised of the opening in the nose, the sinuses, the larynx (air passage containing the vocal cords), the trachea (wind pipe), the bronchial tubes, and the lungs. | | | In severe cases, surgery to help open the airways may be beneficial, but most cases are managed medically not surgically. |

| | Trachea shave - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | While the effects of a trachea shave on voice are minimal, some patients will choose to undergo vocal surgery at the same time. | | | A trachea shave is a surgical procedure by which a protruding Adam's apple is reduced in size by shaving down the cartilage through an incision in the throat, generally to aid the transsexual or transgender woman in achieving a passable female appearance. | | | Due to the close proximity to the vocal folds, there is the small possibility that they may be damaged during this type of surgery. |

| | trachea - one of the tubules forming the respiratory system of most insects and many arachnids | | | This information should not be considered complete, up to date, and is not intended to be used in place of a visit, consultation, or advice of a legal, medical, or any other professional. | | | We can thus, as I infer from Professor Owen's interesting description of these parts, understand the strange fact that every particle of food and drink which we swallow has to pass over the orifice of the trachea, with some risk of falling into the lungs, notwithstanding the beautiful contrivance by which the glottis is closed. |

| | Trachea |
| | The trachea (windpipe) forms the trunk of an upside-down tree and is flexible, like a vacuum tube, so that the head and neck may twist and bend during the process of breathing. | | | The trachea, or windpipe, is made up of fibrous and elastic tissues and smooth muscle with about twenty rings of cartilage, which help keep the trachea open during extreme movement of the neck. | | | The trachea begins immediately below the larynx (voicebox) and runs down the center of the front part of the neck ends behind the upper part of the sternum. |

| | One of the special features of the Trachea is the PCC (pseudostratified ciliated columnar) on the internal surface which keeps the air passage clear of debris. | | | Another is the hyaline cartilage C-rings that keep the trachea open. | | | This also aids in trapping debris that enters the trachea. |
