OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to determine the etiological characteristics of patients with dizziness/vertigo attending a neurological clinic according to the criteria of the International Classification of Vestibular Disorders (ICVD), hoping to provide a valuable reference for clinicians to diagnose and treat dizziness/vertigo.
METHOD: A total of 638 consecutive patients with a chief complaint of dizziness/vertigo who attended the vertigo clinic of our neurology department from January 2019 to January 2020 were included. Clinical data of patients, including baseline data, medical history, neurological, neuro-otological, and auxiliary examination results were collected. The etiologic distribution of dizziness/vertigo was determined by analyzing the diagnoses of patients.
RESULTS: Of the 638 patients with dizziness/vertigo, 38.8% were males, 61.2% were females, with a male: female ratio of 1:1.58 and a mean age of 52.9 ± 16.9 years. Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) was the most common cause of dizziness/vertigo in both female (38.9%) and male patients (25.5%). Subgroup analysis based on sex showed that vestibular migraine (VM) and probable autoimmune inner ear disease (p-AIED) were more prevalent in female patients (10.7% and 3.8%, respectively), while vascular vertigo/dizziness was more common in male patients (10.1%). Subgroup analysis based on age showed that the most common diseases were VM in patients aged 0-30 years (27.4%), BPPV in patients aged 31-60 years (27.1%) and 61-100 years (46.0%). Episodic vestibular syndrome (EVS) was the most commonly observed, accounting for up to 60.6% (389/638) of all patients, and the most common diagnoses were BPPV (55.3%, 215/389), VM (15.2%, 59/389), primary unilateral peripheral vestibular dysfunction (p-UPVD) of unknown etiology (11.8%, 46/389), p-AIED (4.4%, 17/389), and vascular vertigo/dizziness (2.8%, 11/389) in these patients. Chronic vestibular syndrome (CVS) was found in 14.0% (90/638) of the patients, and the most common diagnoses were persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD, 35.6%, 32/90), psychogenic dizziness (18.9%, 17/90), p-UPVD of unknown etiology (15.6%, 14/90), vascular vertigo/dizziness (15.6%, 14/90), and bilateral vestibulopathy (7.8%, 7/90). Acute vestibular syndrome (AVS) was observed in 8.4% (54/638) of the patients, and the most common diagnoses were p-UPVD of unknown etiology (31.5%, 17/54), vestibular neuritis (24.1%, 13/54), probable labyrinthine apoplexy (16.7%, 9/54), stroke (13.0%, 7/54), and psychogenic dizziness (11.1%, 6/54). 16.4% (105/638) of the patients were found to have other disorders, including 15.2% (16/105) of patients with internal diseases, and 84.8% (89/105) of patients with unknown causes. In terms of localization diagnosis, 56.1%, 17.0%, 10.0%, and 16.4% of the patients were diagnosed with peripheral vestibular disorder, central vestibular disorder, psychiatric and functional vestibular disorders, and other disorders, respectively.
CONCLUSION: (1) Dizziness/vertigo was more common in females, which was frequently caused by damage to the vestibular system. Non-vestibular or unknown etiologies were also seen in some patients; (2) VM was more prevalent in women than in men, vascular vertigo/dizziness was more commonly observed in men; (3) EVS was more common in patients with dizziness/vertigo. The most common causes of dizziness/vertigo were peripheral vestibular disorders in patients with AVS and EVS, PPPD and psychogenic dizziness in patients with CVS. The most common causes were BPPV and p-UPVD of unknown etiology in patients with a peripheral vestibular disorder, VM and vascular vertigo/dizziness in patients with central vestibular disorder, PPPD and psychogenic dizziness in patients with psychiatric and functional vestibular disorders.
