Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Neurology
  • Audiology

Context:

  • Vertigo is a common and distressing symptom requiring otolaryngological treatment.
  • True vertigo stems from issues in the peripheral vestibular system, vestibular nerve, or central pathways.
  • Understanding the link between vertigo etiology and hearing status is crucial for diagnosis and management.

Purpose:

  • To investigate the relationship between the cause of balance disorders and hearing ability in patients with vertigo.
  • To analyze audiological findings in relation to different vertigo etiologies.

Summary:

  • This study evaluated 127 patients (88 female, 39 male; average age 56) with vertigo.
  • Comprehensive hearing tests (audiometry, ABR, OAE) and vestibular function tests were performed.

  • Radiological diagnostics aided in determining vertigo's nature.

    • Impact:

    • Audiometric testing revealed hearing impairment in 71 out of 127 subjects.
    • Among patients with vertigo of vascular origin, cochlear lesions were common.
    • Cochlear origin was the most frequent cause of hearing loss in this vertigo patient cohort.
