In this paper author described the significance of vestibular symptoms post stapedectomy in postoperative hearing improvement. Vertigo post stapedectomy was noted and spontaneous nystagmus, positional nystagmus and directional preponderance were examined. Postoperative hearing improvement in patients with and without vestibular symptoms was compared. Author maintained that recent symptoms of peripheral vestibular disfunction had made no difference in postoperative hearing improvement.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009759	Nystagmus, Pathologic	Involuntary movements of the eye that are divided into two types, jerk and pendular. Jerk nystagmus has a slow phase in one direction followed by a corrective fast phase in the opposite direction, and is usually caused by central or peripheral vestibular dysfunction. Pendular nystagmus features oscillations that are of equal velocity in both directions and this condition is often associated with visual loss early in life.

D010040	Otosclerosis	Formation of spongy bone in the labyrinth capsule which can progress toward the STAPES (stapedial fixation) or anteriorly toward the COCHLEA leading to conductive, sensorineural, or mixed HEARING LOSS.

D014717	Vertigo	An illusion of movement, either of the external world revolving around the individual or of the individual revolving in space. Vertigo may be associated with disorders of the inner ear (EAR, INNER); VESTIBULAR NERVE; BRAINSTEM; or CEREBRAL CORTEX. Lesions in the TEMPORAL LOBE and PARIETAL LOBE may be associated with FOCAL SEIZURES that may feature vertigo as an ictal manifestation.
