Progressive and Degenerative Peripheral Vestibular Disorders

xlomafota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader
Initial diagnosis of peripheral vestibulopathy requires a detailed history, physical examination, and, in some cases, audiovestibular testing, radiographic imaging, or serology. Differentiation of a peripheral vestibulopathy as progressive or degenerative is often nuanced and influenced by a characterization of a patient's symptoms or natural history over time. A diverse group of vestibular pathology may fit into this category, including Ménière's disease, autoimmune conditions, congenital pathologies, ototoxic medications, radiation therapy, and perilymphatic fistula. Differentiation among these entities may be guided by initial or subsequent symptomatology, with various combinations of audiovestibular testing, serology, and imaging. Treatment options are disparate and disease-specific, ranging from observation to medical management or surgical intervention, underscoring the need for astute investigation and diagnosis.
