Title: Vestibular neuritis: an overview using a classical case. Author: Ryu JH. Journal: Acta Otolaryngol Suppl; 1993; 503():25-30. PubMed ID: 8470495. Abstract: Although acute unilateral and/or bilateral vestibular paralysis, known as vestibular neuronitis, is the second most common cause of vertigo (the most common is benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), it is fraught with controversies. The clinical symptoms and methods of treatment of vestibular neuronitis are well defined; however, the etiology and pathophysiology of this disorder are still sketchy. Furthermore, there are no specific diagnostic tests available, and unfortunately, there are no animal models for this disorder. The purpose of this paper is to present an overview of those controversies using a classical case of vestibular neuronitis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
