Stridor (from Latin 'creaking/grating noise') is an extra-thoracic high-pitched breath sound resulting from turbulent air flow in the larynx or lower in the bronchial tree. It is different from a stertor, which is a noise originating in the pharynx. Stridor is a physical sign which is caused by a narrowed or obstructed airway.
Symptoms of brachycephaly include: snoring, dyspnoea, emesis, stridor, insomnia, cyanosis, syncope, and dysphagia. [4] Despite observing clinical signs of airway obstructions, some owners of brachycephalic breeds may perceive them as normal for the breed, and may not seek veterinary intervention until a particularly severe attack happens.

Stertor (from Latin stertere 'to snore') is a term first used in 1804 [2] to describe a noisy breathing sound, such as snoring. [3] [4] It is caused by partial obstruction of the upper airways, at the level of the nasopharynx or oropharynx.
Children often present with excessive drooling and stridor (high pitched breathing sounds). [3] Classic triad of choking symptoms in children is coughing, wheezing, and diminished breath sounds, however, a 10-year review showed that this grouping of symptoms was present together in only about 60% of patients.

Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD), also known as Austin disease, [1] or mucosulfatidosis, [1] is a very rare autosomal recessive [2] lysosomal storage disease [3] caused by a deficiency in multiple sulfatase enzymes, or in formylglycine-generating enzyme, which activates sulfatases.
Respiratory symptoms and signs that may be present include shortness of breath, wheezes, or stridor. [4] The wheezing is typically caused by spasms of the bronchial muscles [19] while stridor is related to upper airway obstruction secondary to swelling. [18] Hoarseness, pain with swallowing, or a cough may also occur. [15]
