Overview
Common causes of BPPV may include age related degeneration of the vestibular system, and head trauma. Less common causes of BPPV include ear surgery, and prolong positioning on the back (in dentist chair).
Causes
Life-threatening Causes
- There are no life-threatening causes of BPPV.
Common Causes
Common causes of BPPV may include:
- Age related degeneration of the vestibular system
- Head trauma
Less Common Causes
Less common causes of BPPV include:
Genetic Causes
- The development of idiopathic BPPV may be the result of multiple genetic mutations which leads to less adhesive gelatinous matrix of the utricular macula which predisposed them to BPPV.
