“…The prognosis for affected dogs is good if the foreign bodies can be accurately localized with diagnostic imaging tests (radiography, ultrasonography, sonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging) and completely removed [1, 9, 11]. Among these, endoscopy still is the most effective, allowing diagnosis and direct removal [12, 13].…”

Grass-seed inhalation is a common problem in canine patients, in particular during summer months, migrating in upper and lower respiratory tract. Grass awns can harbor bacteria and fungi, causing grass seeds foreign body-related disease (GSFBD). Aim of this study was to investigate the aerobic microbial flora isolated from grass awns extracted from 41 dogs with GSFBD and the antibiotic susceptibility of the isolated bacterial strains. Fifty-four grass awns were localized with diagnostic imaging tests and removed by endoscopy from respiratory tract. The most frequent localizations were in the left nostril and the right hemithorax. Only one grass awn was extracted from each patient except in 7 that had more than one. Bacteriological and mycological cultures, strains identification, and antibiotic susceptibility tests were performed. One or more bacterial strains were isolated from all grass awns. Fungal strains were isolated only in 4 cases. Staphylococcus sp. was the most frequent isolate in the upper respiratory tract (36.8%), while E. coli (24.4%) was the most frequent isolate in the lower tract. Fluoroquinolones and Doxycycline were the most effective antibiotics, while resistance was observed against Gentamicin (>93%), Cefapirin, and Clindamycin (>80%). These data are relevant in relation to the use of these antibiotics in both animals and humans, for the risk of transmission of antibiotic resistant bacteria or resistance genes.

“…Large airway obstruction from airway foreign body aspiration might present as respiratory emergencies because of obstruction of airflow. Size of the dog, size and location of the foreign body, and any dynamic repositioning will dictate severity of clinical signs 23,194 . More commonly, airway foreign bodies move to smaller airways and might migrate into the pulmonary parenchyma or pleural cavity 195 .…”

This review article seeks to define and describe aerodigestive disease in dogs, and review current and emerging methods of diagnostic evaluation. Aspiration of gastric contents into the respiratory tract is associated with the development and progression of numerous respiratory diseases in humans. In veterinary medicine the term "aspiration" is considered synonymous with "aspiration pneumonia" which, while frequently encountered, does not accurately reflect the breadth of aspiration associated respiratory syndromes (AARS). In the clinical veterinary literature, the effect of alimentary dysfunction on respiratory disease and vice versa (aerodigestive disease) is rarely investigated despite evidence in the human literature, animal models, and some studies and case reports linking alimentary and respiratory disease in small animals.Current methods of investigating aerodigestive diseases in veterinary patients are limited by inadeqate sensitivity or specificity, potential for bias, cost, and availability. This necessitates investigations into advanced diagnostics to identify potentially underrecognized animals with AARS. Additionally, similarities in anatomy, physiology, and several disorders between dogs and humans, make experimental and naturally occurring canine models of AARS integral to translational research. Thus, evaluating dogs with aerodigestive disease might represent an area of substantial clinical relevance in human as well as veterinary medicine.
