Cervical Vertigo

Öz

Cervical vertigo depends on the correlation of dizziness and imbalance with neck pain and the exclusion of other neurological, vestibular and psychosomatic diseases by history, examination and vestibular function tests. Cervical equilibrium disorder pathophysiology is explained by vasculature, neurovascular, cervical sympathetic nerve plexus irritation, somatosensorial input hypotheses. Cervical-induced dizziness complains of too many patients and these patients are referred to many polyclinics. Cervical pathologies should be kept in mind in such patients.

Servikal Vertigo

Öz

Servikal vertigo, baş dönmesi ve dengesizliğin boyun ağrısı ile korelasyonuna ve diğer nörolojik, vestibüler ve psikosomatik hastalıkların öykü, muayene ve vestibüler fonksiyon testleri ile dışlanmasına bağlıdır. Servikal denge bozukluğu patofizyolojisi vasküler, nörovasküler, servikal sempatik sinir pleksusun irritasyonu, somatosensorial girdi hipotezleri ile açıklanmaktadır. Servikal kaynaklı baş dönmesi şikâyeti olan sayıca çok fazla hasta olup, bu hastalar birçok polikliniğe başvurmaktadır. Bu tür hastalarda servikal patolojiler de mutlaka akılda tutulmalıdır.
