Parieto-occipital encephalomalacia is a macroscopic appearance of the brain with loss of cerebral parenchyma associated with gliosis in the brain's anatomical structures. It occurs because of the liquefaction of brain parenchymal necrosis after cerebral ischemia, infection, and haemorrhages. It is often surrounded by glial cell proliferation in response to damage. Rehabilitation after the manifestation of neurological function must be tailored, and well-coordinated intervention must be formulated. We present a case study of a 77-year-old male with parieto-occipital encephalomalacia associated with genu varum deformity with a complaint of generalized weakness, vertigo, giddiness, and fall with one episode of a seizure attack...

This narrative review examines the role of vitamin D as a biomarker in ear disorders, including benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), otitis media, bell's palsy, Meniere's disease, and hearing loss. PubMed, The Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar were utilized to conduct a comprehensive literature search, and findings were combined from studies from 2014 to 2024. As highlighted in this review, there is a consistent association between vitamin D deficiency and an increased risk and recurrence of disease especially in BPPV and otitis media...

Guil Rhim, Moon-Jung Kim
Positional vertigo manifests as a spinning sensation triggered by changes in head position relative to gravity. Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is an inner ear disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of positional vertigo. The connection between vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency and the onset and recurrence of BPPV is established. This study aims to assess vitamin D as a recurring factor in BPPV and the efficacy of vitamin D supplementation in preventing its recurrence. A comprehensive literature review on the relationship between vitamin D and BPPV recurrence was conducted, searching PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and article reference lists for studies published from 2020 to 2023...

Background Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common cause of positional vertigo. It is a short-lived (seconds) rotatory attack of vertigo in relation to the position of the head. Vitamin D deficiency may be one of the causes leading to BPPV. As there is no relevant local study from Iraq, this study aimed to evaluate the association between BPPV and vitamin D deficiency. Methodology This retrospective, case-control study was conducted at the otolaryngology clinic of Al-Ramadi Teaching Hospital during a 26-month duration...

PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the vitamin D deficiency of patients with BPPV recurrence and to evaluate the differences of 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25(OH)D) and serum calcium levels among gender and age categories. METHODS: This cross-sectional study enrolled patients with BPPV. The diagnosis of BPPV was based on positional nystagmus and vertigo induced by certain head positions (The Dix-Hallpike maneuver and head roll tests). All patients' age, serum 25(OH)D, calcium measurements and recurrence data were collected and analyzed...

This report aimed to investigate the relationship after successful left-sided stapedotomy and postoperative benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) due to vitamin D deficiency. A 56-year-old woman presented with a complaint of progressive hearing loss and tinnitus in the left ear without dizziness. A successful left-sided stapedotomy was performed, confirming the diagnosis of otosclerosis and closing the air-bone gap to less than 10 dB. Seven days after the stapedotomy, the patient reported dizziness, usually when turning to her left side in the bed...

Introduction  Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) appears during the same age group in which vitamin D and calcium deficiencies are evident. Vitamin D deficiency could predispose to BPPV, since these two entities share a demineralization process. Objective  To establish the otological impact of vitamin D supplementation in patients with its deficiency who suffer from BPPV. Methods  This was a randomized clinical trial. A total of 35 patients with vitamin D deficiency (< 30 ng/ml) and BPPV were divided into 2 groups: Group 1 (control group): treatment with repositioning maneuvers; and Group 2: treatment with repositioning maneuvers and vitamin D supplementation...

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) usually has a favorable course, although it is possible to observe BPPV with a high recurrence rate. Previous studies suggested that vitamin D deficiency might affect BPPV recurrences, and oxidative stress might play a complementary role in BPPV pathogenesis. This multicentric trial aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of oral nutritional supplementation with a compound of alpha-lipoic acid, Carnosine, and Zinc (LICA® (Difass International, Coriano (RN), Italy)), vitamins of group B and vitamin D in preventing BPPV recurrences...

OBJECTIVE: Vitamin D (Vit D) regulates calcium and phosphate metabolism and helps to maintain otolith organ function. Residual dizziness (RD) is one of the most common complications after the successful treatment of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Various theories have been suggested to explain the cause of RD, and otolith organ disorder is the most evident cause of RD. This study aimed to investigate the association between serum levels of Vit D and the occurrence of RD after the successful treatment of BPPV...

Introduction Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a type of vertigo and its signs are short-time, severe attacks that occur in certain head and body positions. Recent studies have revealed that vitamin D deficiency correlates with BPPV and this is explained by cupulolithiasis and canalithiasis theories. Method In the present study, levels of serum vitamin D in the patients who were diagnosed as BPPV and those in the control group consisting of healthy individuals were investigated. In addition, it was examined whether vitamin D is influential on the rates of BPPV types...

OBJECTIVE: To examine the relationship of 25hydroxyvitamin D serum levels with BPPV incidence and recurrence rates. METHODS: A retrospective cross-sectional, case-controlled study with follow-up phone survey was performed on patients diagnosed with BPPV between 05/2017-05/2020, who had available 25hydroxyvitamin D serology. Patients were seen at a multidisciplinary, vestibular-focused, neurotology clinic at a tertiary referral center. Controls consisted of subjects from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), and a locoregional age, sex, and race-matched group of patients from our institution...

Objective To investigate the possible correlation between benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), seasonality, and climatic variations as indicators of vitamin D deficiency, since otoconia are calcium carbonate crystals. Methods This is a study of patients who received the diagnosis of BPPV from September 2015 to August 2019. Gender, age, and month of diagnosis were factors recorded and analyzed. The cut-off age of 50 years is used to include osteoporotic patients and postmenopausal women. Meteorological and climatic data of latitude, temperature, sunshine hours, humidity, precipitation, wind force, atmospheric pressure, and horizontal solar irradiance were collected...
