Radiography and endoscopy of a 17-day-old Standardbred foal that had right-sided facial swelling and dyspnea since birth revealed a soft tissue mass in the right nasal passage and right maxillary and frontal sinuses. A bone flap was used to expose the mass, and a fluid-filled structure was removed surgically. After surgery, the dyspnea was alleviated. The facial deformity resolved by the time the foal was 6 months old. The upper airway obstruction was absent clinically and endoscopically by the time the foal was 17 months old.
一匹17日龄的标准赛马驹自出生以来右侧面部肿胀且呼吸困难，其放射成像和内窥镜检查显示右侧鼻腔以及右侧上颌窦和额窦有一个软组织肿块。采用骨瓣暴露肿块，并通过手术切除了一个充满液体的结构。术后，呼吸困难得到缓解。这匹驹6月龄时面部畸形消失。这匹驹17月龄时，临床和内窥镜检查均未发现上呼吸道阻塞。
