VESTIBULAR BULB HYPERTROPHY
Authors
Abstract:
In this case report, a 36 year old female at 40 weeks' gestation is presented in whom large bilateral vestibular bulb masses were found on pelvic examination. The size of the masses was such as to cause concern that they may pose an impediment to normal parturition. Our pathological findings, management and results are presented.

Introduction: Traditionally vestibular function has been assessed using caloric irrigations; new methods have failed to reach the same level of accuracy. Vestibular nerve dysfunction occurs with 'acoustic neuroma' or 'vestibular schwannoma. Quantitative testing of hearing by audiometry is much more widely available than quantitative vestibular testing, although consideration of vestibular dysfu...
full textElectrical Vestibular Stimulation after Vestibular Deafferentation and in Vestibular Schwannoma
BACKGROUND Vestibular reflexes, evoked by human electrical (galvanic) vestibular stimulation (EVS), are utilized to assess vestibular function and investigate its pathways. Our study aimed to investigate the electrically-evoked vestibulo-ocular reflex (eVOR) output after bilateral and unilateral vestibular deafferentations to determine the characteristics for interpreting unilateral lesions suc...

Little is known about the vestibulo-perceptual (VP) system, particularly after a unilateral vestibular lesion. We investigated vestibulo-ocular (VO) and VP function in 25 patients with vestibular neuritis (VN) acutely (2 days after onset) and after compensation (recovery phase, 10 weeks). Since the effect of VN on reflex and perceptual function may differ at threshold and supra-threshold accele...

PURPOSE To review the extent and mechanism of the recovery of vestibular function after sudden, isolated, spontaneous, unilateral loss of most or all peripheral vestibular function - usually called acute vestibular neuritis. METHODS Critical review of published literature and personal experience. RESULTS The symptoms and signs of acute vestibular neuritis are vertigo, vomiting, nystagmus wi...
full textVestibular rehabilitation for unilateral peripheral vestibular dysfunction.
BACKGROUND Unilateral peripheral vestibular dysfunction (UPVD) can occur as a result of disease, trauma or post-operatively. The dysfunction is characterized by complaints of dizziness, visual or gaze disturbances and balance impairment. Current management includes medication, physical manoeuvres and exercise regimes, the latter known collectively as vestibular rehabilitation (VR). OBJECTIVES...
