Abstract

A serovirological study to clarify the pathogenesis of vestibular neuronitis was made on 44 patients. The diagnosis of vestibular neuronitis was made under the diagnostic criteria. Sera from all 44 cases were collected twice or more at defined intervals. Of these, 36 cases were treated as paired sera. Seventeen out of 36 paired cases showed significant change in serum viral antibody titer (HSV, 2 cases; CMV, 1 case; EBV, 7 cases; rubella, 2 cases; adeno., 2 cases; influ. A, 1 case; influ. B, 2 cases). It was assumed that infection caused by these detected viruses played an important role in the onset of vertigo in each case.
