Abstract

Vestibular compesation in 3 patients with vestibular neuronitis was examined with static posturography (SPG) and kinetic posturography (KPG). SPG was recorded by a stabilometer during quiet standing and KPG was recorded by POLGON so that angular change of the shoulder on the frontal plane was measured during stepping in the same position. Our study showed earlier improvement of SPG than KPG. By vestibular training, the initial high levels of SPG and KPG decreased precipitously and in the case of sequela, the remarkably high level of KPG gradually decreased. The stepping test by POLGON combined with a stabilometry was useful for estimation vestibular dysfunction.
