Brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) in dogs indicates a particular set of upper abnormalities found brachycephalic (e.g., French bulldogs). Stenotic nares is one the primary BOAS-related restricting functional breathing affected dogs. For severe stenosis, rhinoplasty required to increase accessibility external nostril air; however, specific improvement from surgery terms respirato...

Nostril stenosis is an uncommon deformity with a variable aetiology. It may be either congenital or acquired.
