Sammanfattning

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo presents with brief, episodic, positioning-provoked vertigo and characteristic findings on Dix-Hallpike and other positional tests. This article is based on a systematic review of the literature and describes epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, diagnostic positional tests and treatment using canalith repositioning, liberatory and 360° rotation manoeuvres. Diagnostic pitfalls, mastoid vibration, postmanoeuvre activity restriction and the ideal number of repositioning manoeuvres per treatment session are discussed.
