Paroxysmal positional vertigo (PPV) is a common inner ear disorder causing brief, intense dizziness with head movements. This review details the two main types: posterior and horizontal semicircular canal PPV.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Otolaryngology
  • Vestibular System Disorders

Background:

  • Paroxysmal positional vertigo (PPV) is the most common peripheral vertiginous syndrome encountered in clinical practice.
  • It presents as brief, recurrent episodes of vertigo triggered by specific head movements, often with associated nausea and vomiting.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive and current overview of PPV.
  • To describe the two primary subtypes: posterior semicircular canal PPV (PSC-PPV) and horizontal semicircular canal PPV (HSC-PPV).

Main Methods:

  • This is a review article.
  • It synthesizes existing literature on PPV, focusing on its clinical presentation and pathophysiology.

Main Results:

Related Experiment Videos

  • PPV is characterized by short-lasting vertigo attacks induced by head position changes.
  • Nausea and vomiting are common accompanying symptoms.

    • Conclusions:

    • Understanding the distinct features of PSC-PPV and HSC-PPV is crucial for accurate diagnosis and management.
    • This review offers an updated resource for clinicians managing patients with PPV.
