ABSTRACT

Bilateral vestibulopathy is a rare condition. It is one of the most difficult balance problems to treat because nearly all patients experience long-term unsteadiness. In this report, a 39-year-old woman gradually developing chronic dizziness and instability due to bilateral vestibulopathy as a result of progressive severe cochlear otosclerosis was presented with review of the literature.

Bu çalışmada, ileri derecede koklear otoskleroz nedeniyle oluşan bilateral vestibulopatiye bağlı kronik dengesizlik yakınması ile başvuran 39 yaşında bir kadın hasta literatür taraması ile sunuldu.
