Overview

Surgery is not the first-line treatment option for patients with dizziness. Surgery is usually reserved for patients depending on the cause of dizziness. The surgery options include transection of the posterior ampullary nerve, argon laser (inducing ossification of the posterior canal), and surgical occlusion of the posterior canal with bony plugs. Since hearing loss is one of the most important complications of these procedures, hearing problem in the other ear is contraindication for surgery.

Indications

  • Surgery is not the first-line treatment option for patients with dizziness. Surgery is usually reserved for patients depending on the cause of dizziness.

Surgery

The surgery options include:[1][2][3]

  • Transection of the posterior ampullary nerve
  • Argon laser (inducing ossification of the posterior canal)
  • Surgical occlusion of the posterior canal with bony plugs

Contraindications
