Zusammenfassung

Die häufigsten Erkrankungen mit peripher-vestibulärem Schwindel sind der benigne paroxysmale Lagerungsschwindel, der Morbus Menière und die Neuritis vestibularis. Ihre Diagnostik ist in aller Regel mit einfachen klinischen Untersuchungsmethoden möglich. Zur Therapie stehen differenzierte Lagerungsmanöver sowie medikamentöse und physikalische Methoden zur Verfügung.

Abstract

The most common types of vertigo caused by diseases of the peripheral vestibular system are benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), Meniere’s disease and vestibular neuritis. A thorough examination of the medical history and clinical examination are usually sufficient for the differential diagnostics. Treatment includes differentiated repositioning maneuvers, medicinal treatment and physiotherapy.
