    Laryngeal paralysis is a condition that affects horses and is characterized by total or partial paralysis of the left or right arytenoid cartilage. This condition has a worldwide distribution affecting animals of all breeds and both sexes. The diagnosis is based on physical examination in addition to endoscopic examination of the animal's larynx, which allows the classification of the condition in four degrees according to the impairment of the visualized structures. Once the diagnosis is made, the animal must be sent to a surgical center for the surgery, which is the usual treatment in these cases.
