ELEUTERIO, Eveliny de Oliveira. Clinical and imaging study of tracheal collapse in dogs (Canis familiaris, LINNAEUS, 1758). 2016.18f.Dissertation project (Master’s inVeterinary Medicine, Clinical Sciences). Veterinary Institute Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro, Seropédica, RJ, 2016.

The tracheal collapse is a chronic weakening process of the tracheal rings and sagging of the dorsal membrane, resulting in a narrowing of thetracheal lumen. The disease has an uncharted etiology andit’s occurrence is common in small middle-aged or elderly dogs. Clinical signs are usually associated with dry and non-productivecough, and the diagnostic is given by the association of clinical symptoms and imaging tests. The therapeutic choice arises due to the severity of clinical signs may be symptomatic and palliative treatment or surgical treatment.The project aims to study the tracheal collapse emphasizing clinical features and morphologic changes evaluated by cervical and thoracic radiographs in different projections, cervical ultrasonography and tracheobronchoscopy. For carrying out the study it will be used animals with clinical suspicion of tracheal collapse through anamnesis, clinical and physical examination. The animals will be subjected to imaging tests (cervical and thoracic radiographs, during inhalation and exhalation, and cervical ultrasonography) and the evidence of diagnostic efficacy will be evaluated by tracheobronchoscopy. At the end of the study it is intended to establish the prevalence of the disease in dogs treated at the UFRRJ’s Small animal veterinary hospital within a year, and to characterize the most common clinical signs and their correlation with the images and clinical suspicion. It also will be evaluated the accuracy of imaging studies (cervical thoracic radiography and cervical ultrasonography) in the definitive diagnosis of the tracheal collapse using tracheobronchoscopy as the “gold standard” test.
