[Peripheral cochleo-vestibular syndrome caused by vertebro-basilar insufficiency]. 1977

A S Levshova

The author examined 55 patients with disorders of circulation in the vertebrobasillar basin where the most prevalent clinical signs were expressed in a cochleo-vestibular syndrome due to a lesion of the receptor apparatus of the inner ear. It was marked that in the clinical respect this syndrome was very similar to genuine Meniere's disease. The differential diagnosis of this disease is frequently very complicated. A detailed neurological and otoneurological examination demonstrated a combined lesion in the form of a simultaneous involvement into the process, of the inner ear, the brain stem and cerebellar hemisphere (in different varieties). Inasmuch as the blood supply is provided by the different branches of the anterior inferior cerebellar artery in a vascular brain disorder the clinical signs may be qualified as a variant of the syndrome of the anterior inferior cerebellar artery.

D002537	Intracranial Arteriosclerosis	Vascular diseases characterized by thickening and hardening of the walls of ARTERIES inside the SKULL. There are three subtypes: (1) atherosclerosis with fatty deposits in the ARTERIAL INTIMA; (2) Monckeberg's sclerosis with calcium deposits in the media and (3) arteriolosclerosis involving the small caliber arteries. Clinical signs include HEADACHE; CONFUSION; transient blindness (AMAUROSIS FUGAX); speech impairment; and HEMIPARESIS.

D002561	Cerebrovascular Disorders	A spectrum of pathological conditions of impaired blood flow in the brain. They can involve vessels (ARTERIES or VEINS) in the CEREBRUM, the CEREBELLUM, and the BRAIN STEM. Major categories include INTRACRANIAL ARTERIOVENOUS MALFORMATIONS; BRAIN ISCHEMIA; CEREBRAL HEMORRHAGE; and others.
