Abstract
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is characterized by short, sudden episodes of vertigo when the head moves in specific positions. The treatment is particle repositioning maneuvers. BPPV usually is underdiagnosed, unreported and therefore not adequately treated. We present the case of a patient with spinal cord injury and BPPV.
A 72-year-old patient who suffered a C5 fracture with spinal cord injury C5 AIS C that required surgical fixation. In the spinal cord injury unit BPPV of the left lateral semicircular canal was documented and treated using specific repositioning maneuvers, the patient progressively improved and was able to complete the rehabilitation treatment.
The spinal cord injury unit with access to vestibular rehabilitation units can carry out the diagnosis and specific treatment of BPPV, minimizing the risks for the patient.
