Diseases affecting the respiratory tract are common in cattle; however, surgery required for treatment of these diseases is infrequent. Therefore, veterinarians may be reluctant to perform these surgical procedures. Familiarity with the variety and complexity involved in various surgical procedures should reduce this anxiety. When used, surgery of the respiratory tract can offer significant benefit to the patient and profitable returns to the owner.
影响呼吸道的疾病在牛群中很常见;然而,治疗这些疾病所需的手术并不频繁。因此,兽医可能不愿实施这些外科手术。熟悉各种外科手术所涉及的多样性和复杂性应能减少这种顾虑。呼吸道手术一旦实施,可为病牛带来显著益处,也能为畜主带来可观收益。
