There is an increased risk of developing a vestibular schwannoma in individuals who have a disease called neurofibromatosis.

1 answer


Treatment for vestibular schwannoma depends on the size and symptoms. Options include observation, radiosurgery, or surgical removal. Regular monitoring is important to assess any changes in the tumor.

Vestibular schwannoma, also known as acoustic neuroma, is a non-cancerous tumor that develops on the nerve responsible for balance and hearing, called the vestibulocochlear nerve. Symptoms can include hearing loss, tinnitus, imbalance, and in severe cases, facial weakness or numbness. Treatment options may include observation, radiation therapy, or surgical removal of the tumor.

3 answers


Symptoms include gradually progressive one-sided hearing loss, buzzing in the ears (tinnitus), dizziness , and difficulty with balance.

1 answer


Selective vestibular neurectomy involves removing the balance nerve fibers connected to the affected inner ear while preserving hearing function. This surgical procedure is performed to treat vertigo and imbalance caused by Meniere's disease or vestibular schwannoma. By selectively removing these nerve fibers, symptoms of vertigo can be reduced while minimizing hearing loss.

Your vestibular sense

Your vestibular sense

The vestibular system provides your brain with motion, head position, and spatial orientation information. It also involves motor functions that stabilize your head and body during physical movement. Hence, any problem with the vestibular system will be treated with vestibular therapy. 

Vestibular therapy in Wauwatosa helps you regulate the problems caused due to imbalance in vestibular systems. Balance problems include various issues, but they are connected to the vestibular system. During the treatment, the vestibular system will get reprogrammed to establish an association with your brain. The vestibular therapy in Wauwatosa will restore equilibrium so that you can enjoy your daily activities without fear of falling.

Labrynthitis and vestibular neuritis are sometimes collectively referred to as vestibular labyrinthitis.

2 answers


A vestibular neurectomy is a surgical procedure that involves cutting the vestibular nerve, which is responsible for balance and spatial orientation, to alleviate symptoms of vertigo and dizziness. This procedure is usually considered when other treatments for vestibular disorders, such as medication or physical therapy, have not been effective.

Vestibular sacs are responsible for detecting changes in head position and movement, as well as providing information about acceleration and gravity to help maintain balance and orientation in space. They are part of the vestibular system located in the inner ear.

'Vestibular sense' means a sensory system located in structures of the inner ear that registers the orientation of the head.

1 answer


The vestibular system is also called the inner ear balance system.

2 answers


The vestibular sense is controlled by the vestibular system located in the inner ear. This system includes the semicircular canals and otolith organs, which help provide the brain with information about balance, spatial orientation, and movement.

A Swanoma Tumor is a bundle of nerve cells The correct spelling is schwannoma. A schwannoma (sh-won-oma) is a tumor of the tissue covering nerves called the nerve sheath. These tumours develop from a type of cell called a Schwann cell, which gives them their name. Schwannomas are often not cancerous (benign). The commonest type of benign schwannoma is the acoustic neuroma. This can cause deafness because it grows on a nerve called the 8th cranial nerve, which controls hearing.

Problems with vestibular systems can cause language problems. The relationship is quite complex. However, since there are so many other causes for language delay, no one should automatically say vestibular systems. There are tests that can be given a child to determine if he or she has problems with vestibular systems.

Cerebellar-vestibular dysfunction refers to an impairment in the coordination between the cerebellum (responsible for balance and coordination) and the inner ear vestibular system (responsible for balance and spatial orientation). This dysfunction can result in symptoms such as dizziness, unsteadiness, and difficulty with coordination and balance. It may be caused by various conditions affecting either the cerebellum or the vestibular system.

I have been studying the vestibular function on major depression patients for a long time, we found that there is a specific pattern of vestibular disorder on those patients that sometimes is symptomatic but most of times is subclinic.

The most effective methods for addressing imbalance therapy in individuals with vestibular disorders include vestibular rehabilitation exercises, balance training, and lifestyle modifications. These methods help improve balance, reduce dizziness, and enhance overall quality of life for individuals with vestibular disorders.

If a viral infection involves the vestibular nuclei, it can lead to symptoms of vestibular neuritis or labyrinthitis, such as vertigo, imbalance, and nausea. The infection can disrupt the normal functioning of the vestibular system, which is responsible for balance and spatial orientation. Treatment may involve medications to reduce inflammation and manage symptoms.

The greater vestibular glands are called Bartholin's glands, and the lesser vestibular glands are called Skene's glands. Both glands are located near the vaginal opening and produce fluids that help with lubrication and sexual function.

Vestibular neuritis is typically caused by a viral infection affecting the vestibular nerve in the inner ear. This inflammation of the nerve can disrupt the balance signals sent to the brain, resulting in symptoms like vertigo, dizziness, and nausea.

The vestibular nerve is responsible for transmitting sensory information about head position and movements to the brain, helping to maintain balance and spatial orientation. It works in conjunction with the visual and proprioceptive systems to enable the body to maintain equilibrium. Dysfunction of the vestibular nerve can lead to symptoms like dizziness, vertigo, and unsteadiness.

Disorders of the inner ear, tumor or injury causes vestibular disease in dogs. Such disorders include an infection of the middle or inner ear.

1 answer


The vestibular apparatus, which is located in the inner ear, detects head movements such as a nod through hair cells that respond to changes in acceleration and gravity. When the head nods, the movement is detected by the vestibular system, which helps maintain balance and spatial orientation.
