Abstract
|
|
|
Basilar artery dissection (BAD) is a rare cause of vertigo in children. A 15-year-old girl pre-sented with sudden vertigo and unilateral hearing loss. Magnetic resonance imaging revealedposterior circulation infarction caused by BAD. After antiplatelet therapy, intratympanic in-jections of dexamethasone and vestibular rehabilitation, her symptoms improved. We reportthis case of BAD, which might be mistaken for acute peripheral vestibular disorders in the early stage.
