| Abstract: | Transendoscopic laser axial division of epiglottic entrapment can be performed in the standing horse with sedation and a local anesthetic, obviating the need for general anesthesia. The diode or Nd:YAG laser energy can be transmitted via a flexible fiber through the biopsy channel of the videoendoscope and can provide excellent cutting and hemostasis. Division of the membrane is performed with controlled strokes over the dorsal aspect of the membrane from the caudal edge of the entrapment toward the rostral tip, until the epiglottis is freed. Approximately 1,000 to 3,000 J are required to perform the procedure. Postoperative management consists of antimicrobial and systemic, as well as local anti-inflammatory, medication. The horse will require approximately 2 weeks of convalescence before returning to exercise. |
