Benign paroxysmal vertigo in childhood

Coll Antropol. 2012 Sep;36(3):1033-6.

Abstract

The aim of the paper is to describe the clinical picture of benign paroxysmal vertigo (BPV) in childhood. BPV in childhood often goes unrecognized in spite of the fact that vertigo and balance disorders are not uncommon in children. Four cases are described with clinical examination findings between the attacks.
