This article describes an overall view and the rationale for the different surgical alternatives available for treating incapacitating peripheral vertigo. The authors emphasize that the number of patients requiring surgery is very small, and that the surgical procedures available do not provide 100% relief nor are they free of risks. A need for individualized attention to patients and a careful selection of the most appropriate surgical procedure for each particular case are strongly stressed.
