Vestibulopathy

Disorder of the inner ear


Vestibulopathies are disorders of the inner ear. They may include bilateral vestibulopathy,[1] central vestibulopathy,[2] post traumatic vestibulopathy,[3] peripheral vestibulopathy,[4] recurrent vestibulopathy,[5] visual vestibulopathy,[6] and neurotoxic vestibulopathy,[7] among others.

Tinnitus is a common vestibulopathy. Migraines have often been associated with vestibulopathies. Ménière's disease, which is strongly associated to vestibulopathy, is considered to be "a challenging and relentless disorder."[8]
