Introduction: In migraine, there is no anatomical correlate of vertigo and no structural abnormality is evident in conventional imaging. Cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (cVEMP) is an uncrossed inhibitory vestibulo-spinal reflex (VSR), while ocular VEMP (oVEMP) represents a crossed excitatory vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR).Objective: This study aims at functional evaluation of the findings of cVEMP and oVEMP in migraine patients. Material and methods:This was a cross-sectional case-control study that included 20 migraine patients as the case group and 30 healthy adult subjects as a control group. All participants were subjected to history taking, otological examination, basic audiological evaluation, bedside examination of the dizzy patient, cVEMP, oVEMP, and posturography tests.Results: 35% of migraine patients showed delayed cVEMP latency and 40% showed abnormal oVEMP in the form of statistically significant delayed right oVEMP P1 (p = 0.050) and left oVEMP N1 latency (p = 0.038) compared with controls. cVEMP parameters were not correlated to posturography results. The majority of migraine patients (70%) had normal equilibrium pattern and normal sensory analyses ratios (65%). Only 30% had vestibular dysfunction.Conclusions: VSR and VOR are affected in migraine patients. We recommend the use of cVEMP and oVEMP in migraine patients for functional assessment of brainstem pathways.

“…The results from a prospective study of 32 migraine patients and 31 vestibular migraine ones reveal a numerically higher incidence rate of ears with absent cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in the first group (p=0,106) (21). There are no statistically significant differences between these groups in terms of the p13 or n23 latency, interpeak amplitude, and amplitude asymmetry ratio in right and left ears (p>0,05).…”

There is a rising interest in the diagnosis of the common vestibular disorders in childhood and adulthood. The results from numerous epidemiological investigations prove the socio-medical importance of this pathology. In the present survey, the applications of the main diagnostic methods in this interdisciplinary field are discussed.Here belong the caloric test, the video head impulse test, the cervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials, the videonistagmography, the electrococheography, the magnetic resonance imaging, the computed tomography, etc. A special attention is paid to the comparative diagnosis of some socially significant common vestibular disorders.

“…The most important clinical application of the VEMP is the syndromes of the third mobile window, including superior canal dehiscence syndrome (SCDS, see below) [106][107][108]. The relevance of VEMP in Menière's disease, unilateral and bilateral vestibulopathy, vestibular migraine, BPPV, and auditory neuropathy is very limited or not relevant [104,[109][110][111][112][113][114][115][116]. In SCDS, VEMP amplitudes are increased and VEMP thresholds are lowered on the affected side(s), as a result of a third mobile window [117].…”

Diagnosing vestibular hypofunction: an update

et al. 2020

Unilateral or bilateral vestibular hypofunction presents most commonly with symptoms of dizziness or postural imbalance and affects a large population. However, it is often missed because no quantitative testing of vestibular function is performed, or misdiagnosed due to a lack of standardization of vestibular testing. Therefore, this article reviews the current status of the most frequently used vestibular tests for canal and otolith function. This information can also be used to reach a consensus about the systematic diagnosis of vestibular hypofunction.
