A follow-up study was made on 296 cases with vertigo in this report. After the extended periods (7-10 years) following the first consultation, vertigo disappeared in 52% of the patients and improved in 25%, while tinnitus and hearing loss disappeared in no more than 21 and 17% of the patients. The prognosis of vertigo was not significantly different in age of the patients. The rate of disappearance of vertigo was the highest (at 59%) in the group with peripheral disturbance, followed by the groups with central disturbance (47%) and non-vestibular disturbance (40%). As for vertigenous disease, the rate of disappearance of vertigo stood at 100% for vestibular neuronitis, 63% for Meniere's disease, 54% for sudden deafness, 50% for positional vertigo of benign paroxysmal type, and 37% for cerebrovascular disturbance.
