ABSTRACT We present the case of a young patient, with a 9-month long history of 4 to 5 daily spells of spontaneous vertigo, each lasting only seconds. There is no positional trigger, and there is a complete lack of symptoms between attacks. As is discussed in the article, this matches the recently published criteria for Vestibular Paroxysmia, an entity allegedly secondary to neurovascular compression of the vestibular nerve. The patient responded immediately and completely to carbamazepine at low dosage, the preferred treatment for vestibular paroxysmia.
