Clinical outcomes and complications of tracheal resection and anastomosis in dogs and cats: 20 cases (2009–2022)
Tracheal resection and anastomosis is the surgical technique of choice to reconstruct tracheal defects. Although more than half of the patients recovered well, high morbidity and mortality rates were documented. This may be due to the severe comorbidities affecting most tracheal resection and anastomosis patients, as well as the client's decision against further treatment when facing serious post-operative complications.
