QUOTE FOR TUESDAY:

“If the dizziness cannot be relieved with the conservative medical approach, surgery may be recommended to help alleviate the symptoms. There are 3 commonly accepted procedures to accomplish this:

1. Posterior semicircular canal plugging procedure
2. Singular nerve removal
3. Vestibular nerve clipping

Posterior semicircular occlusion has been adapted and utilized at the Michigan Ear Institute with great success. Only a small portion of the people with BPPV are even considered for this surgery, but because the success of this procedure at the Michigan Ear Institute has been excellent, it is an appropriate possibility for those who may require it.”
