Laryngeal granuloma in a bull.
Dyspnea in an adult bull caused by a large laryngeal granuloma was corrected by use of a surgical technique that allowed resection of the mass without ventral laryngotomy. Endoscopy was used for visualization of the mass during the oral surgery. The technique may be performed in the field.
