The purpose of this retrospective analysis was to provide long-term follow-up for a large number of dogs surgically managed with this technique. A combination of medical record and completed client questionnaire information provided short-term (14 days) follow-up for 88 dogs and long-term (&gt;6 mo) follow-up for 42 dogs. Major short-term postoperative complications were identified in 3 of 88 (3.4%) patients. Major long-term complications were identified in 3 of 42 (7.1%) patients. The results of surgery were considered to be very satisfactory in 93% and unsatisfactory in 7%. Three dogs in this series developed aspiration pneumonia. Bilateral ventriculocordectomy through a ventral median laryngotomy is associated with a low incidence of both short- and long-term complications. Due to the ease of this procedure, the minimal surgical trauma to the patient, and the satisfactory results, this surgery should be considered an option for the treatment of idiopathic laryngeal paralysis in the dog.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5326\/jaaha-ms-5751","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,5,20]],"date-time":"2012-05-20T11:24:03Z","timestamp":1337513043000},"page":"234-244","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Bilateral Ventriculocordectomy via Ventral Laryngotomy for Idiopathic Laryngeal Paralysis in 88 Dogs"],"prefix":"10.5326","volume":"48","author":[{"given":"Cynthia","family":"Zikes","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Timothy","family":"McCarthy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"3280","reference":[{"key":"bib1","series-title":"J Am Anim Hosp Assoc","first-page":"551","article-title":"Treatment of laryngeal paralysis in dogs by partial laryngectomy","volume":"18","author":"Harvey","year":"1982","unstructured":"Harvey\n              CE\n            , O\u2019BrienJA.
