[Peripheral vertiginous syndrome with osteocervical lytic pathology. Importance of the exploration and its differential diagnosis].

Abstract

We are reporting the case of a 52 years old male with a peripheral vertiginous syndrome which could have been diagnosed as a benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. In a craneocervical CT appeared an osteolytical lesion on C3 vertebral body. With this article we pretend to emphasize the importance of a complete exploration and the differential diagnosis in the peripheral vertiginous pathology.
