Vestibular function is often underdiagnosed in vestibular schwannomas (VS). To evaluate it in a selected group of patients harbouring vestibular schwannomas, 64 patients were included in this study, recruited between March 2008 and June 2011 at our institution. All patients underwent Gd-enhanced MRI and complete neurotological evaluation before gamma knife surgery. Morphological measurements in...
BACKGROUND Vibration to the head or neck excites vestibular and neck muscle spindle afferents. Can such vibrations improve the sensitivity of the subjective visual horizontal (SVH) test to chronic unilateral deficit of the vestibular system? DESIGN Controlled experimental study. SETTING Tertiary referral center. PATIENTS AND CONTROLS Thirteen healthy subjects and 23 patients with chronic ...
Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials (VEMPs) have recently become a popular component of the audiovestibular test battery of many neurology, otolaryngology, and audiology laboratories and clinics. Traditional VEMPs, resulting from the vestibulo-collic reflex, are evoked by intense acoustic stimuli presented via air or bone conduction and recorded from the activated ipsilateral neck musculature...
UNLABELLED Migraine and vertigo are common disorders, with lifetime prevalences of 16% and 7% respectively, and co-morbidity around 3.2%. Vestibular syndromes and dizziness occur more frequently in migraine patients. We investigated bedside clinical signs indicative of vestibular dysfunction in migraineurs. OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that vestibulo-ocular reflex, vestibulo-spinal reflex...
OBJECTIVE Vestibular dysfunction increases with age and is associated with mobility difficulties and fall risk in older individuals. We evaluated whether vestibular function influences the ability to perform activities of daily living (ADLs). METHOD We analyzed the 1999 to 2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey of adults aged older than 40 years (N = 5,017). Vestibular function...
various dimensions of the human vestibular aqueduct were evaluated in two groups, patient and control, and these measurements were compared. both groups were examined clinically, followed by audiometric evaluation and temporal bone high resolution ct scan. it was found that in approximately one third of the patient group (with idiopathic snhl), the vestibular aqueduct was 1.5 mm or larger. also...
Anatomic and electrophysiological studies in monkeys have yielded a detailed map of cortex areas receiving vestibular afferents. In contrast, comparatively little is known about the cortical representation of the human vestibular system. In this study we applied caloric stimulation and fMRI to further characterize human cortical vestibular areas and to test for hemispheric dominance of vestibul...
OBJECTIVE To propose an etiology for a syndrome of bilateral vestibular hypofunction and sound and/or pressure-evoked eye movements with normal hearing thresholds. DESIGN Retrospective case series. SETTING Tertiary care referral center. PATIENTS Four patients with bilateral vestibular hypofunction, sound and/or pressure-evoked nystagmus and normal hearing thresholds were identified over a...
BACKGROUND Motion sickness may be caused by a sensory conflict between the visual and the vestibular systems. Scopolamine, known to be the most effective therapy to control the vegetative symptoms of motion sickness, acts on the vestibular nucleus and potentially the vestibulospinal pathway, which may affect balance and motor tasks requiring both attentional process and motor balance. The aim o...
OBJECTIVES To analyze the clinical characteristics of vestibular neuritis patients with minimal canal paresis (canal paresis <25%). METHODS Patients clinically diagnosed with vestibular neuritis and treated at our institute (n=201) underwent otoneurological examination and vestibular function tests. Patients were categorized in terms of the results of caloric testing (canal paresis<25%, n=58;...
