Hypoplastic Trachea
What is that?
Hypoplastic Trachea is part of the flat face (brachycephalic) syndrome. The narrowed trachea diameter impairs dynamic airflow and can compound the restricted airflow caused by the breed-elongated palate and pinched (stenotic) nose.
Symptoms
Whistling-sounding breathing. Difficult breathing, stridor, exercise intolerance, retching.
