For many years, it has gave description as MPPV (Malignat Paroxysmal Positiona l Vertigo) that direction-changing positional nystagmus is caused by central n erve system disorders Recently it became evident that direction-changing positional nystagmus is cau sed by horizontal canal type of BPPV (HC-BPPV). The clinical signs of HC-BPPV and MPPV are closely resembled. They […]
About 15% of temporal bone fractures are produced by blows to the occiput. The fracture line begins in the posterior fossa, at or near the foramen magnum, crosses the petrous ridge through the internal auditory canal and/or the otic capsule. Therefore it is thus called a transverse fracture. In transverse fractures of temporal bone, due […]
The AIM of this investigation is to evaluate the effect of Betaserc – 16 and 8 mg on the patients (workers in the system of transport), with vascular auditory and vestibular disturbances.
The chemical element zinc has been in the last decades strongly studied. It is well known that it is present in some different structures of the Central Nervous System, acting as a co-factor of excitatory glutamatergic synapsis. Its function is not yet fully understood, but it seems to modulate the sensibility of glutamatergic post-sinaptic receptors […]
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.

Method: It had been computed, in absolute and relative data, the complaints, age, gender, neurootological examination results, psychological symptoms and nourish habits in 1041 anamneses of patients from Neurootological and Neurootopsychological Clinic of Universidade Federal de São Paulo – Escola Paulista de Medicina, […]
Since many years we are using the local positioning system of ultrasound computer cranio-corpo-graphy (US-COMP-CCG). The patient is carrying a helmet with 2 ultrasound markers and a shoulder fixation with 2 other ultrasound markers. A computer unit is triggering the ultrasound impulses. Backwardly and above the patient is the ultrsound receiver unit containing several ultrasound […]
