Bilateral Loss of Vestibular Function

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1995
The clinical findings in 53 patients with bilateral vestibular failure (BVF) seen in a neurological hospital are reported. Bilateral acoustic neuromas were excluded. Seven patients (13%) had progressive cerebellar degeneration; these patients had no hearing complaints but showed gait ataxia, abnormal eye movements and cerebellar atrophy on neuro ...

Gait intiation in bilateral vestibular loss

Auris Nasus Larynx, 2001
Gait initiation is a transient procedure between orthostatic posture and steady-state locomotion and includes anticipatory anteroposterior (AP) and lateral movements. Commands for this task are located in some levels of brain stem, which modulates activity of central pattern generator in the spinal cord. The purpose of this work was to explore the role

Bilateral Vestibular Loss in Vertebrobasilar Dolichoectasia

Journal of Vestibular Research, 1996
Bilateral vestibular loss (BVL) is a relatively uncommon syndrome that may produce problems of balance; unsteady gait, especially in the dark; and visual disorders and/or oscillopsia associated with walking and head movements. Sometimes patients with BVL remain asymptomatic.

Vestibular Function in Bilateral Progressive Sensorineural Hearing Loss

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1995
To investigate the vestibular function in patients with bilateral progressive sensorineural hearing loss, we examined 5 cases using electronystagmography. Cases 1, 2 and 3 were adult type, and Cases 4 and 5 juvenile type. All patients had dizzy spells in the early stage of the disease, and showed spontaneous nystagmus.

Effects of bilateral vestibular loss on podokinetic after-rotation

Experimental Brain Research, 2004
We asked what the role of the vestibular system is in adaptive control of locomotor trajectory in response to walking on a rotating disc. Subjects with bilateral vestibular loss (BVL) were compared to age- and gender-matched controls (CTRL). Subjects walked in place on the surface of a rotating disc for 15 min and then attempted to step in place ...

Physical Therapy Outcomes for Persons With Bilateral Vestibular Loss

The Laryngoscope, 2001
AbstractObjective The purpose of the study was to assess the efficacy of physical therapy for patients with bilateral vestibular loss.Study Design Retrospective case series.Methods Twenty‐four patients with a diagnosis of bilateral vestibular loss were identified by a retrospective chart review. Thirteen of the 24 patients met the inclusion criteria of

Bilateral Vestibular Loss, Oscillopsia, and the Cervico‐Ocular Reflex

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1985
Oscillopsia during head movement occurs in patients with bilateral vestibular loss and may be transient or persistent. To investigate mechanisms underlying recovery we tested the vestibulo‐ocular reflex (VOR), visual‐vestibular interaction, and the cervico‐ocular reflex (COR); we used a pseudorandom oscillatory stimulus with a frequency band width of 0

Bilateral superior semicircular canal dehiscence: bilateral conductive hearing loss with subtle vestibular symptoms

BMJ Case Reports, 2020
Superior semicircular canal dehiscence is caused by a bone defect on the roof of the superior semicircular canal. The estimated prevalence when unilateral varies between 0.4% and 0.7% and is still unknown when bilateral. Patients may present with audiologic and vestibular symptoms that may vary from asymptomatic to disabling.

Bilateral vision loss as first presentation of vestibular schwannoma

Himalayan Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023
Abstract Vestibular schwannoma is a benign, slow-growing tumor of the vestibular nerve, located at cerebellopontine angle. It is derived from the Schwann cells of the myelin sheath of cranial nerve eight. We present here a unique case of vestibular schwannoma, who visited us with a primary complaint of bilateral decreased vision.
