To clarify the direction and characteristics of nystagmus at the onset of a vertiginous attack in Ménière's disease. Two patients with Ménière's disease, whose nystagmus at the onset of a vertiginous attack was recorded using electronystagmography. Diagnostic. Electronystagmographic recordings of nystagmus. In both patients, nystagmus was directed toward the affected side over the entire course of the vertiginous attack. One patient experienced a severe sensation of vertigo and exhibited strong nystagmus from the onset of the attack. The other patient reported a mild sensation of vertigo, which was accompanied by intermittent nystagmus. Vertiginous attacks in Ménière's disease are accompanied by irritative nystagmus. The intensity and characteristics (e.g., continuous or intermittent expression) of the nystagmus may be associated with pathophysiological severity.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
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.

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.
