Vertigo in patients diagnosed with dyscirculatory encephalopathy
https://doi.org/10.21518/2079-701X-2014-5-22-26
Abstract
In everyday clinical practice, patients with vertigo often receive erroneous diagnosis - dyscirculatory encephalopathy. Patients with dyscirculatory encephalopathy may complain of dizziness as they feel physically unstable due to white matter lesions in chronic cerebrovascular disease. However, in most cases vertigo is caused by other diseases such as stroke, transient ischemic attack and peripheral vestibular disorders. A detailed analysis of complaints and disease history, as well as clinical and instrumental examination, help to determine the cause of vertigo and avoid the risk of dyscirculatory encephalopathy overdiagnosis.
