Description

This title uses a case study approach to outline the field of dizziness and balance disorders. Written from the combined perspectives of a neurologist and a neurotologic surgeon, each case study describes history, physical examination, laboratory testing, differential diagnosis and treatment. The text includes background material and 59 case studies, five of which concern multiple diagnoses and ten of which address controversial issues.
