The results of physical examination, laboratory evaluations, radiography, tracheoscopy, surgery, and patient follow\u2010up were reviewed. Complications that arose and long\u2010term outcome were noted.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results\u2014<\/jats:bold> Long\u2010term resolution of clinical signs was achieved in all cats after resection of the damaged trachea and its repair by end\u2010to\u2010end anastomosis. Follow\u2010up periods ranged from 12 months to 2.9 years. One cat developed unilateral left\u2010sided laryngeal paralysis 2 to 3 months after surgery; however, this was transient and resolved without intervention within 6 months of surgery.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions\u2014<\/jats:bold> Surgical management of intrathoracic tracheal avulsion injuries in cats can be accomplished via a right lateral thoracotomy. Careful anesthetic technique is an integral part of the surgical procedure if a successful outcome is to be achieved. The incidence of both short\u2010term and long\u2010term complications was low. Care should be exercised to visualize and protect the left recurrent laryngeal nerve if postoperative iatrogenic unilateral left\u2010sided laryngeal paralysis is to be prevented.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Clinical Relevance\u2014<\/jats:bold> This retrospective study documents the successful surgical correction of a series of clinical cases of intrathoracic tracheal avulsion in cats.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1053\/jvet.2000.9138","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2002,8,25]],"date-time":"2002-08-25T03:46:10Z","timestamp":1030247170000},"page":"430-435","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":38,"title":["Surgical Management of Intrathoracic Tracheal Avulsion in Cats: Long\u2010Term Results in 9 Consecutive Cases"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"Robert N.","family":"White","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carolyn A.","family":"Burton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,10,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_2","first-page":"1151","article-title":"Separation of tracheal rings in a cat (What is your diagnosis?)","volume":"161","author":"Ryan CO","year":"1972","journal-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_2","first-page":"1384","article-title":"Traumatic tracheal separation with diverticuli in a cat","volume":"71","author":"Kennedy RK","year":"1976","journal-title":"Vet Med Small Anim Clinician"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_2","first-page":"303","article-title":"What is your diagnosis?
