The treatment of tracheal rupture and generalized subcutaneous emphysema in a dog

Abstract

Potentially life-threatening tracheal injuries are not commonly observed in dogs and usually occur due to bite wounds, gunshot wounds, and collar-chain injuries that form on the cervical part of the trachea, and are an important type of wound that requires surgical intervention. The defect in the trachea should be repaired with surgical interventions. If this defect is not repaired, secondary subcutaneous emphysema occurs. The subcutaneous emphysema that develops may be limited to the perithracheal region only or spread to all body subcutaneous areas. This case report presents the diagnosis and treatment of a dog with tracheal rupture and generalized emphysema, associated with dog fight.
