Abstract

Periodic alternating nystagmus is a rare central nervous system disorder in which the eyes undergo a horizontal jerk nystagmus that periodically reverses direction. A patient with a hypoplastic cerebellum and enlarged cisterna magna exhibited transient periodic alternating nystagmus following an attack of Ménière's disease. We hypothesize that in susceptible individuals with cerebellar disturbances, periodic alternating nystagmus may be transiently induced by vestibular stimuli.

摘要

周期性交替性眼球震颤是一种罕见的中枢神经系统疾病，患者的眼睛会出现水平性急动性眼球震颤，且震颤方向会周期性反转。一名小脑发育不全且枕大池增大的患者在梅尼埃病发作后出现了短暂的周期性交替性眼球震颤。我们推测，在患有小脑功能障碍的易感个体中，前庭刺激可能会短暂诱发周期性交替性眼球震颤。
