title: [Value of Head-Shaking's test in the pre- and the postoperative vestibular assessment].
abstract: The value of Head-Shaking maneuver has brought scientific controversies regarding its role as a clinical tool. In the following publication, we explain the discrepancies between the different studies and find out the role of such a maneuver for clinical evaluation during the pre and post operative period. We showed the influence of the diagnosis and the importance of time interval in the post Head-Shaking responses.
