This review evaluates surgical treatments for common equine upper respiratory conditions like laryngeal hemiplegia and soft palate displacement. It assesses the evidence supporting therapies for these prevalent issues in horses.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Surgery
  • Equine Medicine
  • Respiratory Physiology

Background:

  • The equine upper respiratory tract is susceptible to various conditions impacting performance.
  • Surgical interventions are frequently employed to address these issues.
  • Evidence-based evaluation of these surgical procedures is crucial for optimal outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a comprehensive review of veterinary literature concerning surgical procedures for the equine upper respiratory tract.
  • To evaluate the supporting evidence for various therapeutic interventions.
  • To focus on commonly occurring conditions including laryngeal hemiplegia, dorsal displacement of the soft palate, arytenoid chondritis, and epiglottic entrapment.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic literature search of veterinary surgical and medical databases.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Critical appraisal of studies reporting on surgical outcomes for specified equine respiratory conditions.
  • Synthesis of evidence regarding the efficacy and safety of different surgical techniques.

    • Main Results:

    • Varied levels of evidence support surgical therapies for laryngeal hemiplegia and dorsal displacement of the soft palate.
    • Arytenoid chondritis and epiglottic entrapment also have specific surgical considerations with available evidence.
    • The review identifies gaps in the literature and areas requiring further research.

    Conclusions:

    • Evidence-based surgical recommendations are provided for common equine upper respiratory tract conditions.
    • The review highlights the importance of selecting appropriate surgical techniques based on available evidence.
    • Further research is needed to strengthen the evidence base for certain equine respiratory surgeries.
