Emergency tracheotomy had been performed, and the rock had been removed from the proximal cervical portion of the trachea. Fifty-one days later, the clinical signs had returned and the crane was reevaluated.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"s002\">\n<jats:title>CLINICAL FINDINGS<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>On reevaluation, no obvious external abnormalities were appreciated at the previous surgical site and no discharge was observed from the glottis. Computed tomography and tracheoscopy revealed marked tracheal stenosis and architectural collapse of the trachea at the previous surgery site.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"s003\">\n<jats:title>TREATMENT AND OUTCOME<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>Tracheal resection and anastomosis was performed to remove the stenotic tracheal segment. Histologic examination of the resected tracheal segment revealed pyogranulomas with intralesional coccobacilli, fungal hyphae consistent with <jats:italic>Aspergillus<\/jats:italic> spp, possible parasitic ova, and features suggestive of mild to moderate heterophilic and lymphoplasmacytic tracheitis. The crane was treated with piroxicam, ceftiofur crystalline free acid, terbinafine, and itraconazole. At a follow-up examination 12 weeks later, no abnormalities were appreciated, and the surgical site had completely healed.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"s004\">\n<jats:title>CLINICAL RELEVANCE<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>To the authors\u2019 knowledge, this is the first reported case of successful tracheal resection and anastomosis in a bird of the order Gruiformes. The surgical approach used for the blue crane may be useful for removal of tracheal foreign bodies in this and other long-necked avian species.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.256.11.1262","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,15]],"date-time":"2020-05-15T18:52:18Z","timestamp":1589568738000},"page":"1262-1267","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Emergency tracheotomy and subsequent tracheal resection and anastomosis in a blue crane (Anthropoides paradiseus)"],"prefix":"10.2460","volume":"256","author":[{"given":"Taylor J.","family":"Yaw","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"1Department of Surgical Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI 53706."},{"name":"2Department of Animal Health, Texas State Aquarium, Corpus Christi, TX 78402."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Grayson A.","family":"Doss","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1Department of Surgical Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI 53706."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sara A.","family":"Colopy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1Department of Surgical Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI 53706."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anne L.","family":"Kincaid","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"3Marshfield Laboratories Inc, Marshfield, WI 54449."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Barry K.","family":"Hartup","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1Department of Surgical Sciences, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI 53706."},{"name":"4Department of Conservation Medicine, International Crane Foundation, Baraboo, WI 53913."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1272","reference":[{"key":"ref1","series-title":"J Zoo Wildl Med","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"700","DOI":"10.1638\/2012-0291R.1","article-title":"Review of 23 cases of postintubation tracheal obstructions in birds","volume":"44","author":"Sykes","year":"2013"},{"key":"ref2","series-title":"J Zoo Wildl Med","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"373","DOI":"10.1638\/2008-0097.1","article-title":"Tracheal stenosis in a blue-billed currasow (Crax alberti)","volume":"40","author":"Evans","year":"2009"},{"key":"ref3","series-title":"J Avian Med Surg","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"308","DOI":"10.1647\/2016-223","article-title":"Tracheal resection in a secretary bird (Sagittarius serpentarius) with granulomatous, foreign-body induced tracheitis","volume":"31","author":"Ludwig","year":"2017"},{"key":"ref4","series-title":"J Avian Med Surg","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"150","DOI":"10.1647\/1082-6742(2007)21[150:TRAAIA]2.0.CO;2","article-title":"Tracheal resection and anastomosis in a mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos) with traumatic segmental tracheal collapse","volume":"21","author":"Guzman","year":"2007"},{"key":"ref5","series-title":"J Avian Med Surg","first-page":"243","article-title":"Successful treatment of a traumatic tracheal stenosis in a goose by surgical resection and anastomosis","volume":"12","author":"Clippinger","year":"1998"},{"key":"ref6","series-title":"J Avian Med Surg","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"167","DOI":"10.1647\/2005-012R.1","article-title":"Postintubation tracheal stenosis in a blue and gold macaw (Ara ararauna) resolved with tracheal resection and anastomosis","volume":"20","author":"De Matos","year":"2006"},{"key":"ref7","series-title":"J Avian Med Surg","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"322","DOI":"10.1647\/2009-059.1","article-title":"Multiple tracheal resections and anastomoses in a blue and gold macaw (Ara ararauna)","volume":"24","author":"Jankowski","year":"2010"},{"key":"ref8","series-title":"Aust Vet J","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"451","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1751-0813.2010.00634.x","article-title":"Tracheal resection and anastomosis in a red -
