An 11 year-old Quarter Horse stallion, a participant of three barrel racings, was admitted for clinical evaluation because of inspiratory noises. The wheezing had begun 20 days earlier and the animal was treated with meloxican, dexamethasone and sodium ceftiofur. Respiratory endoscopy revealed grade IV right and grade II left laryngeal hemiplegia, arytenoid chondritis and rostral displacement of the cricopharyngeal arch. Eight days after endoscopy, the horse received an emergency tracheostomy because its respiratory problems worsened. The animal was admitted at the Hospital Veterinário of PUC  Betim, MG, Brazil, where it was submitted to a right laryngoplasty. Five days later, clinical signs remained the same and endoscopy revealed that the right arytenoid asymmetry was not totally treated. In a new surgical procedure, the laryngoplasty was undone and the horse was submitted to a right arytenoidectomy associated with ventriculectomy. One week later, endoscopy revealed a partial obstruction of the laryngeal lumen caused by exuberant granulation tissue, which was controlled by topical application of dexamethasone twice a day. The animal remained hospitalized for 88 days. Five months after the last surgical procedure, the horse returned to competitions with an athletic performance similar to its previous one. It was possible to conclude that the association of arytenoidectomy and ventriculectomy was efficient for the treatment of right laryngeal hemiplegia after laryngoplasty failure and the associated techniques also lead to the return of athletic functionality.
