Laryngeal Paralysis and Polyneuropathy (LPPN) in Dogs

Status: completed

Polyneuropathy is a disease that occurs in humans and in many breeds of dogs and often leads to the diagnosis of laryngeal paralysis. Laryngeal paralysis can be the first clinical sign of polyneuropathy and sometimes occurs without gait abnormalities. Various forms of polyneuropathy can also have genetic causes. In dogs, genetic forms of polyneuropathy probably play a very important role.
