Q

What treatment can be done for Recurrent Laryngeal Hemiplegia?

A

1) Laryngoplasty(TieBack)

23
Q

Laryngoplasty is also called__________.

A

TieBack

24
Q

What position is the horse placed in for laryngoplasty (TieBack) surgery?

A

Right lateral recumbency

-because the paralysis’s is normally on the left side

25
Q

How does the Laryngoplasty (tie back) work?

A

Want to mimic the cricoarytenoid dorsalis muscle

1) suture in the cricoid (do not penetrate lumen of trachea)
2) one suture Under Cricopharyngeus muscle
3) second suture end under cricopharyngeus muscle.
4) dissect muscular process of arytenoid cartilage
- pulls arytentoid cartilage back with suture

26
Q

The skin incision for laryngoplasty is made _________ to the ______________vein.

A

Ventral

Lingual facial vein

27
Q

What are the complications of TIE BACL (laryngoplasty) surgery?

A

1) prosthesis failure
2) loss of abduction
3) SEROMA
4) Cough (remove suture)
5) Dysphagia

28
Q

What other surgery is usually combine with the Tie back, to correct Roarers?

A

Recurrent laryngeal hemiplagia (roarer)

VENTRICILECTOMY
Sacculoectomy

29
Q

What is ventriculectomy?

A

Remove the ventricles

-usually done in combo with laryngoplasty (TieBack)

30
Q

What type of retractors are used for ventriculectomy?

A

Weitlaner retractor

31
Q

What is the roaring bur used for?

A
  • insert into ventricle
  • exteriorize ventricle
  • remove BOTH ventricles

Ventriculectomy (to treat Roarers)

32
Q

What are the complications of Ventriculectomy?

A

1) GRANULOMA formation
2) mucocele
3) laryngeal web

33
Q

What is a more natural way of treating recurrent laryngeal hemiplegia (roarers)?

A

Neuromuscular pedicle graft

-to reinnervate the CRICOarytenoid muscle

34
Q

Why did the Neuromusclar pedicle graft not catch on in AMERICA to fix recurrent laryngeal hemiplagia?

A

Because it take about a year to re-innervate

- the horse owners cant wait that long (peak performance is gone)

35
Q

When would you perform an Arytenoidectomy?

A

1) arytenoid chondropathy
2) Laryngeal hemiplegia
3) failed laryngoplasty

36
Q

What is arytenoid chondritis?

A

Inflammation and thickening of the arytenoid cartilage

37
Q

How would you treat arytenoid chondritis?

A

Arytenoidectomy
1) total: arytenoid body, corniculate and muscular process

2) Partial: arytenoid body and corniculate process

38
Q

What is the preferred treatment for arytenoid chondritis?

A

PARTIAL Arytenoidectomy

-body and corniculate process

39
Q

What is the RTR for Partial Arytenoidectomy?

A

50%

-significantly improved upper airway flow dynamics

40
Q

What is Dorsal displacement of the soft Palate (DDSP)

A

When the soft palate is displaced OVER the epiglotis

41
Q

Why does “choking up “ happen?

A

When the soft palate displaces dorsally

42
Q

Where should the soft palate be normally in relation to the epiglottis?

A

Ventral / below epiglottis

We should always be able to see the epiglottis on endoscopic view!!!!!

43
Q

What is the conservative treatment options for DDSP?

A
  • NSAIDs
  • Tongue Tie
  • Laryngohyoid support divice
44
Q

How does the tongue tie treat DDSP?

A

Prevents horse from moving the larynx caudally

45
Q

How does the laryngohyoid suppport device work for DDSP?

A

Moves the larynx CRANIALLY

46
Q

What are the surgical options for treatment of DDSP?

A

1) Staphylectomy
2) Myectomy
3) Epiglotic augmentation
4) Laster cauterization
5) Laryngeal Tie forward

47
Q

What muscles are involved in Myectomy as a treatment for DDSP?

A

1) sternothyroideus
2) sternohyoideus
3) omohyoideus

48
Q

How does laser cauterization treat DDSP?

A

Laser epiglotic fold

  • scar tissue forms
  • tightens epiglotis folds
49
Q

What is the best surgical treatment for DDSP?

A

Laryngeal tie forward

50
Q

What is a staple lot you?

A

Remove 5cm off caudal edge of soft palate

51
Q

How does the Tie forward treat DDSP?

A

Pulls the larynx cranially, so soft palate cant displace anymore
-pulls thyroid cartilage cranially

52
Q

What is epiglotic entrapment?

A

Loose/too much mucosa below epiglotis

-cover the tip of the epiglotis

53
Q

How do you treat epiglotic entrapment?

A

Transaxial division

54
Q

What is used to cut the epiglotic fold, during epiglotic entrapment treatment?

A
