“…All but one patient with abnormal BAEP showed evidence of a CNS lesion. Anttinen et al (1983) found 5 abnormal BAEPs in 50 patients with vestibular neuronitis, Rosenthal, Pedersen and Johansson, (1984) 8 abnormal BAEPs among 30 patients with vestibular neuronitis, and Ahmed (1984) in 18 of 100 patients.…”

Computerized EEG frequency analysis was performed in 18 patients with peripheral vestibular dysfunction (PVD), 17 patients with central vestibular dysfunction (CVD) and 22 aged matched controls. Increase in the relative theta activity in the centrotemporal region was found in patients with PVD. The decrease of centroparietal beta activity in both groups of patients, as compared to controls, did not reach statistical significance. We conclude that quantified EEG may be a sensitive method to show changes of cortical electrical activity in patients with vertigo, reflecting the imbalance in afferent vestibular input to the cortex.

“…In addition, high‐frequency audiometry has demonstrated abnormalities on the affected side in most cases 17 . Abnormalities in brain stem evoked response audiometry 9,18,19 and even abnormalities on electroencephalography 19 have been demonstrated. Elevation of the threshold of the stapedius reflex has been associated with poor central vestibular compensation in vestibular neuritis by Bergenius and Borg 20 .…”

Because the cause of vestibular neuritis is unknown, this disorder is best understood as a constellation of characteristic clinical symptoms and signs. The differential diagnosis includes peripheral otologic disorders, including Meniere's disease, perilymph fistula, and vestibular atelectasis; and central disorders, including vascular insufficiency, acoustic neuroma, migraine equivalent, paraneoplastic syndrome, metastatic carcinoma, and multiple sclerosis. The site of lesion, as evaluated by clinical signs and symptoms, is controversial because concomitant central nervous system abnormalities have been described. The histopathology of temporal bones from persons who in life had symptoms characteristic of vestibular neuritis demonstrates degeneration of branches of the vestibular nerve and the neuroepithelium of vestibular end organs. Possible causes of vestibular neuritis include viral or other infectious agents and vascular or immune-mediated disorders. The natural history of this disorder is variable. In some patients complete recovery of acute signs and symptoms, including loss of vestibular response, is seen, whereas in others permanent changes have been reported. Initial treatment is generally symptomatic only. Patients with poor recovery may benefit from vestibular rehabilitation or, occasionally, from surgical intervention. The elucidation of the pathogenesis of vestibular neuritis and the development of logical guidelines for individual rehabilitation are needed.
