Equilibrium and Balance

Equilibrium and Balance

The inner ear assumes dual functionalities of auditory perception and equilibrium maintenance. The vestibule is the organ responsible for balance. This organ contains mechanoreceptors, specifically hair cells, endowed with stereocilia, which aid in deciphering information regarding the position and motion of our heads. Two intrinsic components, the utricle and saccule, help perceive head position, while the semicircular canals track head movement. Neurological messages initiated in the...

Summary

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) can rarely occur after non-ear surgery. This study examines three cases of BPPV following nasal or dental procedures, exploring its causes, diagnosis, and treatment.

Area of Science:

Neurology
Otolaryngology
Vestibular Disorders

Background:

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a common peripheral vestibular disorder.
