Guttural pouch endoscopy allows for both the visualization and treatment of many clinical problems in the equine retropharyngeal region. This area is extremely complex, and its description remains a real challenge for veterinary anatomists and practitioners. Six clinically normal equine cadavers were employed. Conventional dissections of guttural pouches without penetrating the guttural pouch membrane were first performed, and each adjacent structure was identified. Then, a guttural pouch endoscopic exam of the dissected heads was performed in order to correctly map each visible underlying anatomic structure identified in the previous dissection. This allowed us to: 1—identify each structure visible on endoscopic examination of the guttural pouch; 2—create a representative map of all the structures accurately identified via endoscopy; and 3—describe a systematic guttural pouch endoscopic examination with practical keys to help identification of the underlying vital structures. Our investigation provides new practical information on guttural pouch endoscopic anatomy and has allowed us to identify structures that were not previously described. We believe that this information may help with an accurate diagnosis in some cases and also potentially reduce iatrogenic trauma to important structures.
