Introduction: Neonatal nasal airway obstruction induces various degrees of respiratory distress. The management of this disease, including surgical repair, will depend on the severity and location of the obstruction. We describe here a case of congenital nasal nostril stenosis that required surgical repair for stenting of both nares after coanal atresia repair.   Case Report: A 2 days old femal...

Brachycephalic syndrome develops as a result of a specific build of splanchnocranium. In dogs of brachycephalic breeds, an impairment of correct gas exchange occurs. 5 French bulldogs at the age of 11-14 months, which suffered from continuous mixed-type dispnoea and lowered effort tolerance, were examined. Apart from the above-mentioned symptoms, the occurrence of strong external nostril stenos...

The nose and not the mouth should be used for breathing as the nose has better air conditioning capacity. When air is inhaled through the mouth it may dry and cool the respiratory mucosa, which can lead to bronchoconstriction in sensitive patients with asthma. By dilating the nostrils you can increase nasal breathing in most subjects. The aim of this study was to investigate whether sleeping wi...
