Description

Neuro-otological examination was evaluated from X-ray films in eleven cases of temporal bone fracture.<BR>Fracture lines on the X-ray film are not always visible in a case of head trauma. Several X-rays and tomography should be obtained. Fracture lines on the films were identified in five cases, in whom there was similar nystagmus in cases of “so-called vertigo of benign paroxysmal positional type.” <BR>This pathological nystagmus can be detected by positional and positioning tests.<BR>In X-ray examinations, both Sonnenkalb's and Stenvers' view were evaluated.
