“…The vibrations involving the cochlea are sufficient to dislodge otoconia, as reported in the case of a dental implant, performed with the use of osteotomes [5]. In our two patients with endodontic treatment, we used the low-powered drill.…”

“…Atacan and associates found a 6.3%, and Magliulo and associates found an 8.5% incidence of BPPV after stapedectomy [6,9]. During these surgical procedures, the occurence of BPPV could be explained in 2 different ways by the pathophysiological mechanisms in the literaturedirect trauma or indirect trauma (vibration induced by the drill) [5]. The tip of the piston could be affected by direct trauma.…”

“…They are provoked by a quick change in head position such as lying down, rolling over in bed, bending over, or looking up [1][2][3]. Although head trauma, migraine disease, long-term bed rest, extended travel, Ménière disease, viral labyrinthitis, vestibular neuronitis, and upper respiratory infection are believed to predisposing factors, most cases of BPPV (50 to 70%) are idiopathic [4,5]. Ear surgery is another causative factor in BPPV [6].…”

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is one of the most common types of vertigo caused by peripheral vestibular dysfunction. Although head trauma, migraine, longterm bed rest, Ménière disease, viral labyrinthitis, and upper respiratory tract infections are believed to be predisposing factors, most cases of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo are idiopathic. Ear surgery is another cause, but after nonotologic surgery, attacks of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo are rare. We describe three cases of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo attacks after non-otologic surgery (one patient after a nasal septoplasty and two patients after dental endodontic treatment) and discuss the pathophysiological mechanism of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo seen after non-otologic surgery, its diagnosis and treatment.

“…Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo has been described following other otologic surgeries such as cochlear implantation. 20,21 Whereas post-SCD repair disequilibrium has been commonly reported in the literature, 9 studies have not explored the specific nature of vestibular symptoms. 11 Herein, we aim to investigate the development of BPPV in patients following surgical management of SCD.…”
