Practical otic anatomy and physiology of the dog and cat.

Knowledge of the normal structure and function of the canine and feline ear is critical to be able to diagnose abnormalities that either involve the ear or originate within one or more of the ear compartments. In addition, a veterinarian must be aware of various structures within or associated with the ear so that they are not damaged or destroyed while treating an animal with otic disease. This article provides a brief discussion of the various anatomic features of the ear and normal physiology of portions of the ear.
