Abstract

The article highlights the problem of differential diagnosis of peripheral vestibular syndrome, which hides such pathological processes as benign positional paroxysmal vertigo, vestibular neuronitis, Meniere's disease. The lack of specification in the diagnosis in this category of patients leads to erroneous diagnosis, inadequate treatment, an increase in the duration of disability and the occurrence of anxiety and depressive disorders. The article presents the differential diagnosis of peripheral vestibular syndrome, examples of therapeutic maneuvers and cases from practice. For effective diagnosis and treatment, it is necessary to take into account the clinical signs of the onset and manifestations of peripheral vestibular disorders, pay special attention to the questioning and detailed description of the patient's complaints, conduct special positional tests and consult with specialized specialists.
