[The downbeat nystagmus in 2 cases with unilateral Meniere's disease]
Abstract:
We retrospectively analyzed 2 patients of unilateral Meniere's disease with downbeat nystagmus. Audiometric test, the Dix-Hallpike maneuver and the supine roll test were performed. Both patients presented with spontaneous nystagmus with downbeat components, and downbeat components were exaggerated by Dix-Hallpike maneuver. Spontaneous and positional nystagmus with downbeat component can occur in Meniere's disease, which may be resulted from excitation of three semicircular canals.
