Cochleovestibular dysfunction caused by cerebrovascular diseases

When the vascular disorder of the cochleovestibular system is mentioned, the diagnosis is based on exclusion of other diseases. Since arteries of the cochleovestibular system cannot be directly visualized, physicians must deduce from the vascular risk factors and the vascular lesion of other territories to the vascular cochleovestibular disease. Authors analyzed neurootological and audiological examination […]


Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in brainstem stroke

Objectives/Hypothesis: Despite its widespread application in the posterior fossa tumor, the study of VEMP in cases of posterior fossa stroke remains scarce. The purpose of this paper is to establish the role of VEMP in patients with brainstem stroke. Methods: Acute vertigo patients were admitted and underwent a battery of audio-vestibular testings including caloric test […]


Neurosensorial complaints of patients with diabetes receiving oral versus insulin treatment

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic syndrome of impaired carbohydrate, protein, and fat metabolism secondary to insufficient secretion of insulin or to target tissue insulin resistance. The most common and most overlooked cause of vertigo is the impairment of carbohydrate metabolism. It is important that the patient with vertigo must be investigated from a metabolic point […]


Ocular pursuit test with the neck turned, a study in whiplash patients

Whiplash accidents may cause disturbances to the neck and/or CNS, primarily the brainstem. Neurootological findings are frequent. Posture is disturbed when the neck is held in a provocative position. Tjell et al have reported very high frequency of disturbances in the ocular pursuit tested with the neck turned. We tested 34 whiplash patients and 20 […]


Eng outcome and neuropsychological findings in tinnitus patients

Psychological aspects are often underlined in generation of tinnitus so we assessed the neuropsychological status in our group of patients. We also found increased number of abnormal ENG recordings in tinnitus patients so the aim of this study was to compare the ENG outcome with their neuropsychological status. The study was carried on 69 subjects […]


Posture in patients with peripheral vestibular syndrome: exploratory study

Objectives: To evaluate corporal posture in patients with peripheral vestibular dysfunction, out of crisis. To verify the presence of pain in the muscular system, in cephalic and cervical segments and shoulders. Material and Method: Exploratory study using the modified Kendall protocol of posture evaluation. Eighty-two patients (26 men and 56 women) aged 9 to 84 […]


Ice hockey: a model to investigate dynamic balance control

Hockey is a contact team game played by international rules. According to the rules the hockey players while struggling for the puck are allowed to perform various co-operative and confrontational actions. Hockey is the faster team game. Players produces high velocities by skating using muscles power (about 30 Km/h). The game requires very fine eye-hand-legs […]


Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in meniere’s disease

Objective: Staging of Meniere’s disease proposed by AAO-HNS (1995) was based on the arithmetic mean of the pure tone thresholds at 0.5, 1, 2, and 3kHz, using the worst audiogram during the interval six months before treatment. Accordingly, stage I means four-tone average less than 26 dB; stage II, 26-40 dB, stage III, 41-70 dB, […]


Depressive disorders in relation to neurootological complaints like vertigo, dizziness, hearingloss and tinnitus

Depression is a mental state of depressed mood characterised by feelings of sadness, despair, and discouragement. Depression ranges from normal feelings of “the blues” through dysthymia to major depression. It in many ways resembles the grief and mourning that follow bereavement. There are often feelings of low self-esteem, guilt, and somatic symptoms such as eating […]


Stabilometry in patients with ménière’s disease

Objective: to analyze the oscillatory velocity of the pressure center (COP) of the body in different sensorial contexts in patients with Ménière’s Disease. Methods: 15 subjects, 02 males and 13 females, aged 28-71 years, who presented defined diagnostic of Ménière’s Disease were submitted to evaluation of the modified clinical test of sensorial integration (mCTSIB) by […]
