Objective: This clinical study was performed with a female patient to evaluate the effects of combined Eastern-Western medicine treatment on benign paroxysmal positional vertigo after acute vestibular neuritis.Method: We used acupuncture, herbal medication, Western medication, fluid therapy, and the canalith repositioning maneuver to treat a female patient suffering from dizzy spells. The vertigo scale was checked to assess any improvement in symptoms.Results: The patient had originally recovered from acute vestibular neuritis, but after the first discharge, she came down with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo and had to be rehospitalized. She eventually got better, however, and her score on the vertigo scale improved.Conclusion: This study demonstrates that combined Eastern-Western medicine treatment may be an effective option for treating benign paroxysmal positional vertigo after acute vestibular neuritis, despite the difficulty of the treatment in this case.

Vertigo include not only simple whirling sensation but also leaning or falling down sensation. Particularly in benign paroxysmal positional vertigo(BPPV), the principal symptom is dizziness and accompanied by nausea, lightheadness, vomiting. They are induced by positional change which like shake ones head or lay down or turn over in one' s sleep. Cause of BPPV is otoconium fragments which are released from inner ear and stimulate ampulla of semicircular canal. So in treatment BPPV, we often using the Dix-hallpike maneuver that realignment otoconium fragments. A case of vertigo patient suggested BPPV who is diagnosed oriental medically as weakly dizziness showed prominent improvement by medicate Bojungikgi-tang and operate otoconium-realignmentation (improved Dix-hallpike maneuver) maneuver so we reported.

A fourty-year-old housewife was admitted to the Department of Ear, Nose, and Throat from the emergency room, because of severe vertigo associated with positional changes of the head. Hallpike maneuver produced typical patterns of bilateral nystagmus consistent with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo(BPPV), and further geotropic rotatory nystagmus with positional change of the head in each direction. Direction of nystagmus reversed when the patients was repositioned upright. Particle repositioning maneuver was administered to her left ear but failed to relieve the severe dizziness associated with the head turning to the right. She was then referred to the patient received 27 SGB treatments and the patients was almost completely healed. It is unusual for the BPPV to occur bilaterally therefore reference concerning the effectiveness of SGB for the treatment of BPPV was difficult to obtain. In conclusion we would like to report the successful treatment of BPPV with SGB.

Vertigo and dizziness are common symptoms with various etiologies and pathogeneses. Vertigo is an illusion of motion due to disease of the vestibular system, usually a sense of rotation. Dizziness, a term that represents a wide range of non-vertigo symptoms, is commonly associated with non-vestibular disorders including old age, cardiac syncope, orthostatic hypotension, metabolic disease, anxiety, and drugs. Vertigo should be determined whether the cause is central or peripheral. Peripheral vertigo is usually benign but central vertigo is serious and often require urgent treatment. The careful history and detailed physical examinations(pattern of nystagmus, ocular tilt reaction, head impulse test and positional tests such as Dix-Hallpike maneuver) provide important clues to the diagnosis of vertigo. Most of patients have benign peripheral vestibular disorders - vestibular neuritis, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), and Meniere's disease. BPPV is a leading cause of peripheral vertigo and can easily be cured with a canalith repositioning maneuver. In this review, a focus is on the differential diagnosis of common vestibular disorders with peripheral and central causes.

Objective: The purpose of this paper is to report the improvement in a patient with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) treated with herbal medication based on the Shanghanlun disease pattern identification diagnostic system. Methods: According to the 'Disease Pattern Identification Diagnostic System based on Shanghanlun Provisions,'the patient was diagnosed with Guorem-byung number 350 provision, and took Baekho-tang herbal medication for 15 days. The result of administration was evaluated using the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) and the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Results: After administration of Baekho-tang for 15 days, based on the 350 provision of Baekho-tang diagnosed according to the Shanghanlun provisions, the DHI score decreased from 74 to 16 and the VAS score decreased from 10 to 1. Conclusions: The patient recovered from symptoms of BPPV. This case report suggests that the words '滑,''厥,''裏'on the 350 provision of Shanghanlun mean physical and psychological causes of BPPV in this case.

Objectives: This study provides evidence for clinical practices by analyzing present clinical Korean medicine articles about benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Methods: Articles published up to July, 2017 were found by searching "BPPV", "Benign positions", and "Vertigo" as keywords in three domestic electric databases (i.e., OASIS, NDSL, RISS). Results: The initial search resulted in 228 articles; however, only 20 articles satisfied the selection criteria and were analyzed. Of these, 40% were published in the Journal of Korean Oriental Internal Medicine, and 35% were published in 2003. When diagnosing BPPV patients, VAS scores are primarily used for clinical assessments rather than objective diagnostic tools. Banhabaekchulcheonmatang was the most frequent herbal medicine used to treat BPPV, and the most commonly used therapeutic acupuncture point was Jok-samni (ST36). The most common diagnosis of BPPV was dam-eum according to nine studies. Conclusions: Systematic and large-scale research for the standardization of BPPV treatment is needed.

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo(BPPV) is the most common peripheral vestivular disorder that is featured with paroxysmal vertigo caused by position changes. For a long time, it has been believed that the rendition is caused by inorganic particles in the cupula of the posterior semicircular canal. In the book 'DongyiSuseBowon(東醫壽世保元)', vertigo has been mentioned So-Yang-Sang-Pung syndrome and fever-aversive syndrome for Yin deficiency of So-Yang-In. Hyeong-Bang-Do-Jeok-San(荊防導赤散) is used at So-Yang-Sang-Pung and Gyeol-Hyung syndrome of So-Yang-In. Three patients in the cases have been suffered from vertigo, nausea and hot flushes etc. These patients were classified as So-Yang-In by features in the face, bodyshape and personality patterns. All of them have been improved in vertigo and other symptoms with Hyeong-Bang-Do-Jeok-San for a few days. The result showed that So-Yang-In Hyeong-Bang-Do-Jeok-San was effective on vertigo and other symptoms of BPPV patients.
