Specialized Laryngeal Paralysis Surgery for Pets in New Jersey
At Symbios Animal Health, we specialize in laryngeal paralysis surgery for pets experiencing breathing difficulties caused by this condition. Laryngeal paralysis occurs when the muscles controlling the vocal cords weaken, leading to compromised airflow and respiratory distress. Our experienced veterinary team provides effective surgical interventions to restore normal breathing and enhance your pet's quality of life.
Laryngeal paralysis is commonly seen in older dogs and may manifest as noisy breathing, coughing, or even fainting during exertion. When conservative management is not sufficient, surgical intervention becomes necessary. During the procedure, our veterinarians perform a laryngeal tie-back surgery to secure the affected vocal cord, allowing for unobstructed airflow. This surgery alleviates breathing difficulties while minimizing the risk of aspiration pneumonia.
Post-surgery, we prioritize your pet's recovery and comfort. Our team provides comprehensive aftercare, including pain management, activity restrictions, and monitoring for complications. We work closely with you to ensure your pet regains a normal, healthy breathing pattern and adapts well after surgery, allowing them to return to their everyday activities.
If your pet is experiencing symptoms of laryngeal paralysis or may require surgery, contact the nearest Symbios Animal Health location to explore treatment options. Our compassionate and skilled team is here to guide you and your pet through every step of the journey, helping restore their health and improving their quality of life.
