Abstract

<p>Brachycephalic airway syndrome often occurs in Bulldogs, Pekingeses, Pugs, Boxers and Japanese Chins. Brachycephalic airway syndrome is a syndrome causing upper airway obstruction due to stenotic nares, elongated soft palate, tracheal hypoplasia, everted laryngeal saccule and morphological abnormalities of the nasal tract. Common symptoms of brachycephalic airway syndrome are snoring, dyspnea, coughing, and syncope. Negative pressure pulmonary edema and sinus arrhythmia are also observed. We report a dog with suspected cardiogenic pulmonary edema which turned out to have negative pressure pulmonary edema caused by brachycephalic airway syndrome.</p>
