Short and concise, clinically-oriented book with special emphasis on drug, physical, operative or psychotherapeutic An overview of the most important syndromes, each with explanatory clinical descriptions and illustrations makes it an easy-to-use reference
This monograph is designed for clinicians managing dizzy patients and scientists interested in the multi-sensorimotor mechanisms of spatial orientation, motion perception, and control of ocular and postural functions. It emphasizes accurate diagnosis and provides detailed treatment recommendations. The second edition has evolved significantly, reflecting the vast advancements in understanding vestibular function and disorders since the 1990s. Key developments include the distinction between canalolithiasis and cupulolithiasis as causes of posterior and horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positioning vertigo, the identification of familial episodic ataxia I and II as inherited channelopathies, and the recognition of otolithic syndromes as distinct from semicircular canal syndromes. Additionally, several new central vestibular syndromes have been described and classified based on vestibular pathways and centers, along with a new classification system for central vestibular syndromes based on the vestibulo-ocular reflex's three major planes of action. The book also explores the complexities of the multisensory vestibular cortex. Unlike other clinical textbooks, it does not separate anatomy and physiology from disorders, offering a more integrated approach.
