The overall complication rate was 8.3%, of which 2.7% were considered major. No life\u2010threatening complications occurred, and no complications were related to the staphylectomy. The questionnaire was completed by 66.7% of owners (median follow\u2010up 459\u2009days), of which 88% felt that surgery had improved the quality of life for their dog. The majority (88%) of dogs were discharged from hospital on the day of surgery. Of the surveyed owners, 14% sought veterinary attention between their dog leaving the hospital and the scheduled postoperative reassessment 2\u2009weeks after surgery. Four dogs were presented for veterinary intervention during this time period, but no intervention was related to the staphylectomy or for a life\u2010threatening condition.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Clinical Significance<\/jats:title><jats:p>The split staphylectomy offers a safe, straightforward method of addressing both excess thickness and length of soft palate in dogs with brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome.
