*Inflammation of the trachea - tracheitis
|maplink = Cardiorespiratory System (Content Map) - Pathology
|pagetype =Pathology
*Tracheitis can occur as part of an extension of an upper or lower viral or bacterial respiratory infection
|sublink1=Trachea - Pathology
**eg: [[Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis|IBR]], [[Feline Herpesvirus 1|FHV-1]], [[Equine Herpesvirus 1|EHV-1]], [[Orthomyxoviridae|influenza viruses]]
|subtext1=TRACHEA
**eg: [[Bordetella bronchiseptica|''Bordetella bronchiseptica'']], [[:Category:Streptococcus species|''Strep. equi.'' subsp. ''zooepidemicus/equi'']], [[Pasteurella multocida|''Pasteurella multocida'']]
}}
*May cause
**Obstruction to airflow
**[[Aspiration Pneumonia|Aspiration pneumonia]]
*Acute inflammation passes through the same stages as [[Rhinitis#Rhinitis|rhinitis]]
===Chronic polypoid tracheitis===
*In dogs and cats
*Secondary to chronic inflammation
