The diagnosis of patients in modern neuro-otogical centres has to include not only history and examination, but also objetive and quantitative tests. In this study stress the importance of a short but significant given to study the vestibular function through of vestibular Test of Balance (TOB) the most common and actually wide spread technique to […]

Over the last 28 years the author has been fascinated with both Meniere’s disease and patients with perilymphatic fistula (PLF), two conditions which at times closely resemble each other and at times may be indistinguishable.

The evaluation of cochleovestibular dysfunction in psychiatric patients often causes difficult problem in our neurootological practice. The most difficult challenge is the cases of combined lesion: psychiatric disorders with organic cochleovestibular diseases.
