We investigated the patients who complained of vertigo, dizziness in our clinic from 1977 to 1978.The number of vertigenous patients has been increasing step by step and especially the old patients of them have been increasing. There were 547 (male 281, female 266), 569 (male 312, female 257) patients in 1977, 1978 respectively and they occupied 6.4%, 6.5% in total outpatients.The causes of vertigo or dizziness were inflammation (chronic otitis media, cholesteatoma), intoxication (streptomycin, kanamycin), cerebral circulatory disturbance (vertebrobasilar insufficiency, hypertention, hypotention), congenital or degenerated disease (congenital nystagmus, multiple sclerosis), tumor (CP angle tumor, cerebral tumor), trauma (whiplash injury, head trauma) and unknown. The group of unknown causes contained Meniere's disease, sudden deafness, benign paroxymal positional vertigo and unknown causes, origin disturbances.The vertigo or dizziness due to unknown origin and unknown causes were the most numerous of all and tended to increase, but Meniere's disease has been decreasing.
