Meniere's disease remains a disorder of unknown origin despite the collective efforts to determine the pathogenesis, although experts have long recognized that disease development likely has some heritable component. Although genetic studies of Meniere's disease have been inconclusive, increasing knowledge of human genetic structure and mutation and investigative techniques have potential to further understanding of this disorder.
尽管人们共同努力以确定梅尼埃病的发病机制，但它仍然是一种病因不明的疾病，尽管专家们早就认识到疾病的发展可能有一些遗传因素。虽然对梅尼埃病的基因研究尚无定论，但人类基因结构、突变及研究技术方面日益增长的知识有可能进一步加深对这种疾病的理解。
