[Study of the vestibule in patients with dizziness and vertigo after 60 years of age].
Aging of the vestibular apparatus is shown to consist of processes similar to those occurring in other parts of the nervous system. The recognition of these findings is a first step in the clinical differentiation of presbyastasis from symptoms related to specific disease processes. Authors had reviewed results of otoneurological investigations in the material of 8328 patients and realised that 1034 of them (12.4%) were over-60-year-old. These patients suffered from pathology of peripheral as well as central part of vestibular system.
