Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Otolaryngology

Background:

  • Recurrent vertigo is a common neurological symptom.
  • Benign recurrent vertigo (BRV) and basilar artery migraine (BAM) share overlapping clinical features.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the clinical characteristics of Japanese patients with recurrent vertigo.
  • To explore the relationship between benign recurrent vertigo and basilar artery migraine.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective case series analysis of 21 Japanese patients.
  • Clinical data collection including vertigo characteristics, headache presence, and neurological examination findings.

Main Results:

  • The study included 21 Japanese patients (15 female) with a mean age of onset of 30.8 years.
  • All patients experienced headaches, often associated with vertigo attacks.
  • Clinical presentation was consistent with benign recurrent vertigo; four patients showed cranial nerve symptoms suggestive of basilar artery migraine.

Conclusions:

  • Benign recurrent vertigo in these patients shares features with basilar artery migraine.
  • BRV may represent a localized vestibular manifestation of BAM, linked to migrainous disturbances.
