Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome  (BOAS) | 短顱犬呼吸道阻塞綜合症 

Frenchie、英國老虎狗、Pug Pug、北京狗、西施、Boxer 、Boston Terrier 等等佢哋有咩共通點?無錯!就係佢哋都係扁面品種!扁面品種雖然好得意、好可愛,但係大家又知唔知扁面嘅汪汪係蠢萌背後其實都有好多嘅健康問題?!而最易患上嘅就係上呼吸道阻塞同隨後嘅呼吸困難等多種問題。儘管唔係所有扁面汪汪都會出現臨床症狀,但呼吸系統疾病嘅發生率同嚴重性比起其他汪汪相對地非常高。與扁面型特徵相關嘅呼吸系統疾病稱為「短頭型阻塞性氣道綜合症」(Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome BOAS)。

喺一d 嚴重嘅個案上,獸醫可能會建議喺汪汪仲尚算健康及情況未到最壞時進行一系列嘅矯形手術,幫助減低呼吸道阻塞同呼吸困難嘅情況。由於扁面汪汪麻醉風險較高,主人們一般都會掙扎應唔應該選擇手術;而由於手術亦都可能牽涉好幾個項目,獸醫姑娘們亦都未必一一了解。所以,今次我地又會請 Dr Howie 為我地詳細講解一下關於 BOAS 嘅手術、手術前同手術後嘅護理。

是次課程我地都好歡迎寵物主人參加,主人既理解同信任都係治療既關鍵。(但都要講句,是次課程我地既主要對象係獸醫姑娘,所以內容上未必會100%乎合主人需要,多謝諒解!)
