Vestibular dysfunction in Parkinson disease

Neurology, 1982
Symptoms and signs of postural instability are often present in patients with Parkinson disease (PD). Because vestibular dysfunction might contribute to the postural instability, we carried out bithermal caloric tests and electronystagmography in 36 patients with PD and 316 controls.

Vestibular Nerve in Meniere's Disease

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1980
Biopsy specimens of vestibular nerves of 40 patients with severe Meniere's disease were studied by microscopy. In 17 patients, a translabyrinthine eighth nerve transection was done; in 23 patients, a middle fossa vestibular neurectomy was done. Many of the nerve fibers had thickened and deformed myelin coats; some were thinly myelinated fibers and some

Vestibular Disease Unmasked by Hyperventilation

The Laryngoscope, 1998
AbstractHyperventilation‐induced dizziness is often thought to be psychogenic, but its effects in the presence of known vestibular disease have not been adequately examined. In this study hyperventilation was tested in two models of vestibular disease.

Vestibular Investigations in Meniere's Disease

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1981
151 patients with unilateral Meniere's disease were investigated with a vestibular test battery in the interval between vertigo attacks, and the results were compared with those obtained in a control group. In 73.5% of the patients a caloric response reduction of the afflicted ear was observed.

Peripheral Vestibular System Disease in Vestibular Schwannomas

Otology & Neurotology, 2015
Dizziness is a common symptom in patients with vestibulo-cochlear schwannoma (VS), and several recent studies have identified this symptom as the single most important concerning the quality of life. Clinical and histological observations regarding hearing loss have suggested that this may be caused by both cochlear and retrocochlear mechanisms ...

Vestibular Recruitment in Menibre's Disease

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1971
Patients with unilateral Meniere's disease were investigated with regard to vestibular recruitment. They were accelerated clockwise and counterclockwise respectively at l°, 2°, 4°, and 8°/sec2. After each acceleration, there was an interval of about 6 minutes at constant velocity. Latency times, crescendo times, and after-discharges were studied.

Vestibular Disease in Dogs and Cats

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2010
The vestibular system is the major sensory (special proprioceptive) system that, along with the general proprioceptive and visual systems, maintains balance. Clinical signs of vestibular disease include asymmetric ataxia, head tilt, and pathologic nystagmus.

Vestibular nerve section for Ménière's disease

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1976
In summary: (i) the fact that VNS spares auditory function makes it preferable to labyrinthectomy. A comparison of VNS and the "conservative" operations on the inner ear shown that they have much the same effect on hearing. VNS by controlling vertigo may also provide an additional benefit by eliminating one of the stress factors concerned in the ...

Menière's disease as a manifestation of vestibular ganglionitis

American Journal of Otolaryngology, 2001
To present morphologic evidence of viral-induced vestibular nerve pathology in Menière's Disease (MD). MATERIAL STUDIED: Twelve temporal bones (TB) from 8 patients with the clinical symptoms of MD.There was endolymphatic hydrops (EH) and perilymphatic fibrosis in 10 of the 12 TB from MD patients.

Vestibular diagnosis in Meni�re's disease

Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 1976
Vestibular diagnosis of Menière's disease must be based on the results of an elaborate test battery. The latter should include a complete caloric test (stimulation with cold and warm water), carried out under nystagmographic control. Statistical analysis of caloric responses recorded in 100 normal test subjects by D.C.
