title: [Rehabilitation of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo in the experience of the Wrocław Clinics].
abstract: Mechanical disturbances in inner ear in cupulo-utricular complex are the cause of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV). Pharmacotherapy is ineffective in such cases. The results of rehabilitation with the use of Semont of Epley manoeuvres in 46 patients were presented. The regression of symptoms in 24 cases treated with the use of Semont manoeuvre was achieved in 62% and in 22 cases treated with the use of Epley manoeuvre in 73%. Theoretical assumptions of effectiveness of treatment applied were discussed on the basis of cupulolithiasis and canalolithiasis theories.
