Vestibular neuritis spares the inferior division of the vestibular nerve [PDF]
Brain, 1996 Acute unilateral vestibulopathy, or vestibular neuritis, is the second most common cause of vertigo. To quantify the involvement of the different semicircular canal (SCC) afferents in this disease, we studied the three-dimensional (3D) properties of the vestibuloocular reflex (VOR) in 16 patients 3-10 days after onset of symptoms.

Retrolabyrinthine Vestibular Nerve Section: A Current Appraisal [PDF]
Ear, Nose & Throat Journal, 1997 We report our experience (1987-1993) with Meniere's disease patients treated with a retrolabyrinthine vestibular neurectomy. The current literature was reviewed and our results have been compared with those of previous reports. The overall success rate for vertigo relief was 96.7%, with no serious or permanent complications resulting from the procedure.

Miscellaneous Vestibular Nerve and Labyrinthine Disorders
, 1991 Unilateral or bilateral vestibular dysfunctions can be produced by conditions other than the common disorders discussed in the previous chapters. These can be conveniently classified under the following headings: congenital (see also Chap. 26, Hereditary disorders), infectious, autoimmune, vascular (see Chap.

In the nearly 90 years since Frazier first performed an eighth nerve section through the posterior fossa for the treatment of Ménières's disease, the surgical management of Ménière's disease has come full circle. With refinements in surgical technique and advancements in instrumentation, optics, illumination, and neuromonitoring, a procedure that was ...

When the vertigo of Meniere's disease becomes refractory to medical management, a variety of surgical options are available. If intratympanic gentamicin has failed or is not recommended and serviceable hearing is present, sectioning the vestibular nerve is an excellent option in terms of vertigo control, hearing preservation, and postoperative quality ...

Vestibular Nerve Compression in Eighth-Nerve Tumors
ORL, 1981The superior vestibular nerve was studied histologically in 25 patients who underwent removal of inferior vestibular nerve schwannoma. In most cases, the nerve fibers were structurally normal but the endoneurial space showed various degrees of capillary stasis and/or extravasation of red blood cells. Increased fibrosis of the endoneurial space was seen

Deafferentated vestibular nerve
Proceedings, annual meeting, Electron Microscopy Society of America, 1983Contrary to the cochlear branch of the VIIIth nerve, the vestibular branch does not degenerate quickly in the squirrel monkey after the end organs are surgically removed. This surgical procedure is favored by some investigators who advocate that removal of the vestibular receptors does eventually lead to the death of the nerve.

Patterns of vestibular function following vestibular nerve section
The Laryngoscope, 1992AbstractBithermal caloric irrigations, low‐frequency rotational chair stimulation, and posturography were performed on 20 patients before and after vestibular nerve section. Twelve patients demonstrated acute postoperative spontaneous nystagmus and rotational vestibulo‐ocular reflex (VOR) asymmetry.
