Item Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo After Nonotologic Surgery: Case Series(2015) Kansu, Leyla; Aydin, Erdinc; Gulsahi, Kamran; 25838683Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is one of the most common types of vertigo caused by peripheral vestibular dysfunction. Although head trauma, migraine, longterm bed rest, Menie're disease, viral labyrinthitis, and upper respiratory tract infections are believed to be predisposing factors, most cases of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo are idiopathic. Ear surgery is another cause, but after nonotologic surgery, attacks of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo are rare. We describe three cases of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo attacks after non-otologic surgery (one patient after a nasal septoplasty and two patients after dental endodontic treatment) and discuss the pathophysiological mechanismof benign paroxysmal positional vertigo seen after non-otologic surgery, its diagnosis and treatmentItem Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo in Pregnancy(2017) Coban, Kubra; Yiğit, Nilufer; Aydin, Erdinc; 29392061Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a clinical entity characterized by acute, brief paroxysmal attacks of rotational vertigo induced by head position changes. It is the most common peripheral vestibular pathology and is seen more frequently in women. However, to our knowledge, there is very limited data on the association between BPPV and pregnancy in both English and Turkish literature. We present four pregnant women diagnosed with BPPV for the first time during gestation and revise the etiological factors of BPPV and the role of pregnancy-related changes in BPPV.
