Abstract

The larynx of the dog and cat controls the air flow to the lungs and prevents food or fluid from entering the airway during swallowing. Also, the larynx is important for vocalization and generating the explosive force necessary to expel material from the airways during the cough reflex. This article discusses the diagnosis and management of laryngeal disease in the dog and cat.
