"Respiratory tract disease in chelonians can be difficult to treat and as such proper diagnostics are paramount. Infectious agents that can affect the respiratory tract of chelonians include viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic organisms. Noninfectious diseases can also develop. Because chelonians lack a proper diaphragm, changes in size of celomic organs can cause compression of the respiratory system. These conditions result in clinical signs that could be attributed to the respiratory system, such as open-mouth breathing. In this article, anatomy, physiology, and current standards for diagnostics and treatments of major diseases of the respiratory tract in chelonians are discussed."
龟类的呼吸道疾病难以治疗，因此正确的诊断至关重要。可影响龟类呼吸道的病原体包括病毒、细菌、真菌和寄生虫。非传染性疾病也可能发生。由于龟类没有适当的横膈膜，体腔器官大小的变化会导致呼吸系统受压。这些情况导致的临床症状可能归因于呼吸系统，例如张口呼吸。本文讨论了龟类呼吸道主要疾病的解剖结构、生理机能以及当前的诊断和治疗标准。
