“…Many case reports on 'vertigo epileptica' [16][17][18][19][20] agree with the view that there is increased neuronal activity in the superior temporal gyrus. Operative and electrophysiological cerebral interventions [21,22], clinical and (stereo-)encephalographic observations [7,8,23] as well as animal experiments [24] seem to indicate that me dial and posterior parts of the temporal supe rior gyrus together with the area o f the sulcus interparietalis may be the cortical represen tation of vertigo.…”

Vertigo and disorders of equilibrium are well known as aurae in epileptic diseases, especially in the psychomotor type of seizures. Some aurae of complex-partial seizures represent brief paroxysmal schizophrenic episodes with cenesthesias and perception disturbances. An analysis of a large sample of inpatients diagnosed as epileptics with vestibular aurae demonstrated the presence of the constellation of symptoms known as ‘vertigo epileptica’ comprising cognitive disturbances, cenesthesias and vegetative disorders, the so-called ‘basic symptoms’ of schizophrenics in Huber’s sense, as well as their relationship to hallucinations and characteristic disorders of spatial orientation. The results highlight the pathogenetic relevance of the temporal lobe region and its associated limbic system for understanding schizophrenic disorders.

“…For a long time vestibular function was regarded as being mainly concerned with oculomotor and postural adjustment. In a series of clinical observations in the preelectroencephalographic era (11,15,24) it was shown that vestibular dysfunction and caloric or rotatory vestibular stimulations may induce epileptic attacks. The studies of Spiegel (21,22) followed by various other investigators ( I , 13,16,23) resulted in the general conclusion that parts of the temporal lobe represent the vestibular function at the cortical level.…”

SUMMARY Five epileptic patients who experienced vertiginous or showed rotatory phenomena during epileptic attacks were described. Peripheral vestibular stimulation was used as an activating EEG procedure. The observations described here, supported by data from the literature, led the author to the following conclusions: Different abnormal EEG patterns, focal or generalized, besides temporal foci, may be found in connection with vertiginous and other epileptic manifestations of vestibular dysfunction. In the observed cases with vertiginous and gyratory epileptic attacks no other EEG responses to the stimulation of the horizontal semicircular canals were séen, than otherwise occasionally observed in epileptic patients. The term “vestibulogenic seizures” therefore should be used with caution only in the sense of a reflex induction of an epileptic phenomenon. RÉSUMÉ Cinq malades épileptiques qui présentaient des sensations vertigineuses ou des mouvements giratoires pendant leurs crises ont subi une “activation” par la stimulation vestibulaire périphérique. Les resultats obtenus s'accordent avec ceux de la litterature et permettent les conclusions suivantes: Différentes anomalies EEGraphiques, focalisées ou généralisées, peuvent être rencontrées en dehors des foyers temporaux chez ces malades. La stimulation des canaux semi‐circulaires horizontaux ne provoque chez ces malades aucune autre réponse EEGraphique que celle qui est provoquée de temps en temps chez d'autres malades épileptiques. Le terme de “crise vestibulogène” ne peut done être utilisé avec précaution que dans le but de désigner la production réflexe d'un phénomène épileptique.

“…The release of epileptic seizures in confirmed epileptics by labyrinthine stimulation has been reported by several authors (Marie & Pierre, 1922;Jones, 1923;Rabinovifch, 1928;Scheinmann, 1928;Marinescu, Driiga'nescu, Bruch, 1934;Stauder, 1934;Driiga'nescu & Sager, 1947 ;Zona'sescu, 1957;Behrman, 1958). The four case of Marie & Pierre (1922) (all with paroxysmal vertigo associated with loss of consciousness or obnubilation), the 2 cases of Driiga'nescu & Sager (one case displaying vertigo and loss of consciousness, the other case generalized convulsive seizures preceded by vestibular aura), as well as one of Stauder's cases (complex visual hallucinatory seizures) suggested the existence of temporal lobe epilepsy.…”
