Avaliação tomográfica e radiográfica de estenose/colapso do brônquio principal esquerdo em cão da raça Pug
Stenosis/collapse of the bronchi is a condition of luminal narrowing, often associated with obstructive syndromes in brachycephalic dogs, with the pug being one of the most predisposed breeds. The most common clinical signs include dyspnea and chronic cough. Diagnosis can be achieved through bronchoscopy, radiography, and computed tomography. The described patient presented clinical signs such as nasal discharge and dyspnea. This study reports a case of stenosis/collapse of the left main bronchus, diagnosed using a combination of imaging techniques, radiography, computed tomography, highlighting the importance of a detailed evaluation of direct and indirect findings from theses imaging modalities to reach this diagnosis
