Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was diagnosed in a 3-year-old Basset Hound that was referred to the hospital because of respiratory distress. Results of radiography, bronchoscopy, and pulmonary function tests indicated lung hyperinflation, airflow restriction, and loss of elastic recoil of the lungs. Because of the poor response to treatment, the dog was euthanatized. Postmortem findings revealed emphysema, bronchiectasis, and bronchitis, which comprise chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
一只3岁的巴吉度猎犬因呼吸窘迫被转诊至医院，被诊断出患有慢性阻塞性肺疾病。放射学、支气管镜检查和肺功能测试结果显示肺过度充气、气流受限以及肺弹性回缩丧失。由于治疗反应不佳，该犬被实施安乐死。尸检结果显示存在肺气肿、支气管扩张和支气管炎，这些构成了慢性阻塞性肺疾病。
