Dogs with BOAS index &gt;50% and BOAS functional grades II\u2010III after CMS were considered candidates for LATE. A BOAS index was repeated 2\u20136\u2009months after LATE. Intranasal lesions and a measurement of soft tissue proportion at the rostral entrance of choanae (STC) were recorded on the basis of computed tomography images. Logistic regressions were used to assess the intranasal predictors for being LATE candidates.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Twenty\u2010nine of 57 dogs were candidates for LATE, all of which were pugs or French bulldogs. The median BOAS index of dogs that were operated on (20\/29 candidates) decreased from 67% post\u2010CMS to 42% after LATE (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.001). Soft tissue proportion at the rostral entrance of choanae was the only predictor for candidacy for LATE.
