Abstract
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is characterized by mechanical dysfunction of the vestibular system in the inner ear. Displacement of otoconia from utricle to semicircular canals is held responsible for the development of BPPV. Etiologic factors are mostly classified as idiopathic. Head trauma, viral labyrinthitis and otologic surgery are also included.
