The spectrum of audiologic and vestibular findings in patients with Meniere's disease.
A retrospective study of 55 patients with Meniere's disease suggested a subgrouping based on presentation of auditory symptoms. Patients were defined as "definite" (documented fluctuating hearing loss and episodic vertigo), "probable" (history of fluctuating hearing loss and episodic vertigo) and "possible" (history of fluctuating tinnitus and episodic vertigo). An in-depth discussion of the natural history, audiometric and vestibular findings is presented.
