Ménière syndrome: cortical brain projections studied by brain electric tomography (loreta)

A study of cerebral cortical projections in Ménière Syndrome has been carried out. The analysis was made by Brain Electric Tomography – Loreta and the most significant areas have been evaluated by means of Statistical non Parametric Mapping – SnPM. The regular Ménière Syndrome (vertigo-hypoacusis-tinnitus) has a very important cortical representation in frontal areas Brodmann […]


Vestibular and optokinetic nystagmus in the ketamine-anesthetized rabbit.

Ketamine, or ketamine hydrochloride, is a non-barbiturate, rapid-acting disassociative anesthetic: the primary central nervous system action of ketamine appears to be a non-competitive block of NMDA (named after the selective agonist N-methyl-D-aspartate). In the current study, we examined the effect of ketamine on cortical and subcortical function by exploiting evoked eye movements: we analyzed the […]


How can reach the patients with vertigo the otoneurological department?

In Hungarian expertise the patients with vertigo and sensorineural hearing loss and tinnitus are examined and treated in special outpatient departments of hospitals. Authors are analyzing the data of their patients, which were examined in the last two years in their otoneurological outpatient department. Most of the patients reach the outpatient department from general otolaryngological […]


P-100 in the treatment of Ménière’s disease, a clinical study

Patients suffering from Ménière’s disease are particularly sensitive to negative pressure in the middle ear. E.g. attacks of vertigo can be triggered by a descent in an aircraft when ventilation of the middle ear can become critical. Positive pressure pulse treatment has shown to have a beneficial effect on the symptomatology, and is now a […]


Unexpected effects of air pollution on inner ear

Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (PPV) is the most frequent kind of vertigo. It is a recognized as an inner ear problem caused by small calcium carbonate crystals that float through the inner ear fluid and strike against the cupula of semicircular canal. Authors have observed in a retrospective statistical analysis of 575 patients through 5 years […]


The use of antiserotonin drugs in the nucleo-reticular vestibular syndrome and vestibular neuronitis

Vestibular Neuronitis was described in 1949 and 1952 by Dix and Hallpike. Two groups of patients were described, those with sudden seizures and sensations of blackout (since identified as having Vestibular Neuritis) and a second group with symptoms of disequilibrium and feelings of top heaviness or imbalance. The pathology was felt to be central to […]


Spinal fluid-perilymph relationships in patients with vertigo, tinnitus, pressure and hearing fluctuation

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. Both conditions manifest themselves with vertigo, tinnitus, pressure or fullness and hearing fluctuation or loss. All of these entities may […]


Vertigo, phobia and panic

Phobia and panic are frequently associated to vertigo. The literature concerning phobia and panic describes and points out these disorders. Therefore the pychoanalytical considerations will be the support utilized for the comprehension of these dynamical psychic process.


Meniere’s syndrome- is it a vascular lesion of inner ear?

Introduction: The classic Menière’s disease triad is: recurrent, episodic vertigo, hearing loss, not always fluctuating, and aural fullness or/and tinnitus. The etiology of the labyrinthine hydrops is not clear. Some authors suggest a connection between Meniére’ s syndrome, and vascular disorders. Single photon emission computer tomography scanning has been shown to be more sensitive than […]


Delayed endolymphatic hydrops as a clinical entity

Delayed endolymphatic hydrops (DEH) is a clinical entity which can be differentiated from Ménière’s disease and is typically observed in patients who have been suffering from longstanding unilateral profound inner ear hearing loss. DEH is probably caused by delayed atrophy or fibrous obliteration of the endolymphatic resorptive system of the membranous labyrinth. The time that […]
