Key Points

  • This study aims to explore the differences in the hyoid bone structure across various dog breeds to inform better veterinary practices.
  • Utilized clinical imaging techniques to examine the hyoid apparatus in different dog breeds.
  • Analyzed morphological variations and their implications for veterinary anatomy.
  • Reviewed applications of findings for surgical and rehabilitation processes.
  • Identified significant morphological differences in the hyoid apparatus among dog breeds.
  • Found that these variations affect swallowing and vocalization functions.
  • Proposed enhancements for clinical interventions based on hyoid structure.

Abstract

Understanding the morphological variation of the hyoid bone in dogs contributes to veterinary anatomy and has practical applications in veterinary medicine, particularly in surgical and rehabilitation practices. Given the hyoid apparatus's critical role in swallowing and vocalisation, insights from this study may enhance clinical approaches to treating conditions linked to hyoid bone morphology.
