Abstract

A 25‐week‐old Oriental shorthair cat was anaesthetised to perform computed tomography and bronchoscopy. During endotracheal intubation, a deciduous premolar was contacted with the laryngoscope blade, dislodged, and subsequently aspirated into the trachea. The tooth was removed via bronchoscopy, and the cat was recovered in the intensive care unit due to the development of laryngeal oedema. The risk factors for tooth dislodgement in the cat and proposed improvements in the immediate period after dislodgement are discussed in this report.

猫在气管插管时牙齿脱落并吸入空气

对一只 25 周大的东方短毛猫进行了麻醉，以便进行计算机断层扫描和支气管镜检查。在气管插管过程中，喉镜刀片接触到一颗脱落的前臼齿，使其脱落，随后吸入气管。通过支气管镜将牙齿拔出，由于喉头水肿，猫在重症监护室中康复。本报告讨论了猫咪牙齿脱落的风险因素以及脱落后立即采取改进措施的建议。
