In this study, retrospective studies were conducted for the total of 16 children who visited the clinic for major symptoms of dizziness.
The main purpose of this analysis was to examine typical patterns in subject population and possible linkage between dizziness and auditory functions. Results showed that children with dizziness had diverse causes of symptoms and demonstrated no significant relatedness with hearing loss. However, subjects reported frequent signs of tinnitus and Meniere disease. Therefore, in addition to vestibular function tests, other batteries of audiological evaluation should be required to identify the proper causes.
