Vestibular function in migraine-related dizziness: A pilot study

Abstract: Migraine-related dizziness (MRD) refers to a disorder in which vestibular symptoms are an integral part of migraine symptomatology. The purpose of this study was to better define the pathophysiology of MRD, which is incompletely understood and to generate hypotheses regarding MRD by assessing the semicircular canal-ocular reflex, the otolith-ocular reflex, visual-vestibular interaction, vestibulo-spinal function, and visually induced postural sway. Subjects included five subjects with MRD, five subjects with m… Show more

“…It is generally accepted that the slow and fast phases of the OKN reflex consist of ocular pursuit and saccades, respectively, and abnormalities in both of these have been reported in children with vestibular migraine perhaps due to a central vestibular dysfunction [ 25 ]. The increase of postural instability in children with M and VM in response to OKN-S recalls previous results both in children [ 11 ] and adults [ 12 , 13 , 14 ]. The exact mechanism of these abnormal VEPRs is not known bus some experiments suggested an altered interaction between visual and vestibular cortical networks [ 12 , 30 ].…”

“…Furman et al stated that balance perturbation induced by OKN-S was greater in VM patients compared to subjects with M and suggested that this difference depends on a greater susceptibility of the former when exposed to large, moving scenes, such as traffic, crowded supermarkets, etc. [ 14 ].…”

“…or central origin (central nervous system including the inner ear, brain stem, cerebellum, basal ganglia, and the hemispheres). 55,56 It is speculated that those symptoms manifest in patients with migraine because of central changes 7,46,52 related to the overlap between trigeminal and vestibular pathways 10,52,[57][58][59] and vasospasm-induced ischemia of the labyrinth and brainstem, 60,61 alongside cerebellar dysfunction. [11][12][13][14][15] In patients with tension-type and cervicogenic headache, balance alterations can be related to peripheral mechanisms, including altered neck proprioceptive afferences due to a great number of mechanoreceptors with central and reflex connections to the visual, vestibular, and central nervous systems.…”
