Upper Airway Surgical Diseases

Managing diseases that contribute to upper airway obstruction continues to be an evolving and challenging aspect of veterinary surgery. Complex anatomy and function, along with limitations in diagnostics, contribute to these challenges. In this seminar we will focus on challenging cases and innovative solutions.
