Abstract

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of posterior canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (Pc BPPV) according to age and genders, which is the most common cause of peripheric vertigo. And also, to reveal the frequency of accompanying systemic diseases in this patient group and the any relationship of these systemic diseases on recurrent attacks. Materials and Methods: The present study is performed with 72 patients aged 21-83 years who applied to our clinic complain of peripheric vertigo and diagnosed as Pc BPPV with Dix-Hallpike maneuver. Age and gender distribution, time onset of the disease regarding less than thirty days and longer than thirty days, number of vertigo attacks regarding one attack and more than one attacks, history of head trauma and accompanying systemic disorders were recorded. Results: We determined that Pc BPPV was seen at the rate of 68.1% in females, 31.9% in males, 76.4% under the age of 40, and 23.6% over the age of 40. History of accompanying hypertension was found more frequent in patients with multiple attacks than patients with single attack, and this difference was statistically significant (p=0.002). However, there were statistically difference was not found with diabetes mellitus and other systemic diseases. Conclusion: Pc BPPV is the most common cause of peripheric vertigo which effects semicircular canals. It is more common in females and the age over forty years. Right ear is affected more than left side. The present study showed that cases with hypertensive patients more prone to recurrent attacks who diagnosed with Pc BPPV.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı en sık gördüğümüz periferik vertigo nedeni olan posterior kanal benign paroksismal pozisyonel vertigo (Pc BPPV)hastalığının yaş ve cinsiyetlere göre dağılımını belirlemektir. Ayrıca bu hasta grubunda sistemik hastalıkların görülme sıklığı ve bu risk gruplarınıntekrarlayan ataklar üzerine etkisini ortaya koymaktır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmamızı kliniğimize baş dönmesi şikayeti ile başvuran 21-83 yaş arası Dix-Hallpike testi ile Pc BPPV’si tanısı konulan toplam72 hasta ile gerçekleştirdik. Hastalığın yaş ve cinsiyetlere göre dağılımı, hastalığın başlangıç zamanı son 30 gün içerisinde olanlar ve 30 günden dahauzun olanlar, tek atak geçirenler ve birden fazla atak geçirenler, geçirilmiş kafa travması ve eşlik eden sistemik hastalık öyküsü olanlar kaydedildi.Bulgular: Hastalığın kadınlarda %68,1 erkeklerde ise %31,9, 40 yaş üzerinde %76,4, 40 yaş altında ise %23,6 oranında görüldüğü bulundu. Birdenfazla atak geçiren hastalarda eşlik eden hipertansiyon öyküsünün tek atak geçirenlere oranla daha fazla görüldüğü ve bu farkın istatistiksel olarakanlamlı olduğu bulundu (p=0,002). Bununla birlikte diyabet ve diğer eşlik eden diğer hastalıklar açısından anlamlı fark bulunamadı.Sonuç: Pc BPPV semisirküler kanalları etkileyen, periferik vertigonun en sık görülen nedenidir. Hastalık 40 yaş üzerinde ve kadınlarda daha sıkolarak görülmektedir. Sağ kulak tutulumu sol tarafa göre daha yaygındır. Çalışmamız Pc BPPV’si tanısı alan hastalarda hipertanisyonu olan olgulardatekrarlayan atakların daha sık olduğunu göstermiştir
