The upper respiratory tract of a pony mare with marked exercise intolerance and respiratory stridor was examined with a flexible fibreoptoscope. Both arytenoids were adducted and distorted. A diagnosis of bilateral chondritis of the arytenoids was made and confirmed at autopsy after surgery to enlarge the rima glottidis was unsuccessful. Other space occupying lesions of the rima glottidis are discussed and theories on the aetiology are postulated.
用可弯曲纤维内窥镜检查了一匹运动耐受力明显下降且伴有呼吸喘鸣的母矮种马的上呼吸道。两侧杓状软骨内收且变形。诊断为双侧杓状软骨炎,在试图通过手术扩大声门裂未成功后,尸检得以证实。文中讨论了声门裂的其他占位性病变,并推测了病因学理论。
