Title: Secondary complications of vestibular neuropathy
Author: Pavol SKACIK, Stefan SIVAK, Egon KURCA

Abstract: Vestibular neuropathy represents the third most common cause of peripheral vestibular disorders. The clinical picture of the disease is characterized by acute vertigo with vegetative accompaniment. A typical course is monophasic with the resolution of symptoms within a few days to complete adjustment. In some patients, secondary complications may occur, which we define into three groups: organic, cognitive, and functional. The occurrence of complications and their persistence is often an overlooked issue, which does not receive sufficient attention and can lead to a significant deterioration in quality of life. Therefore, the management of these patients requires a comprehensive approach and interdisciplinary cooperation between neurologists, physiotherapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists. In the following text, the authors attempt to elucidate this issue further (Fig. 1, Ref. 49).
