Title: Canalith repositioning procedure for relief of post-stapedectomy benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. Author: Collison PJ, Kolberg A. Journal: S D J Med; 1998 Mar; 51(3):85-7. PubMed ID: 9550927. Abstract: A 41-year-old woman underwent a successful stapedectomy for relief of conductive hearing loss due to otosclerosis. Post-operatively, she developed persistent symptoms of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Eight weeks later, a canalith repositioning procedure was performed in the office, with immediate complete resolution of her vertigo. Anatomic and pathophysiologic implications of these observations will be discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
