Figure 4.5.16 Tracheal Malacia (Canine) CT
9y FS Yorkshire Terrier with previously docu
mented tracheal collapse. The caudal cervical
tracheal lumen (a: arrow) is flattened and
less than 50% of the cross‐sectional area of
the midcervical (b: arrow) and intrathoracic
(c: arrow) trachea. Endoscopic examination
confirmed dynamic bronchial (d: arrow
heads) and tracheal (not shown) collapse.
