We describe a case of childhood multiple sclerosis with vertigo as a presenting finding. A review of 14 casts at The Children's Hospital of Denver disclosed that vertigo was a presenting symptom in four of these. This ratio closely approximates the adult incidence. With the application of objective vestibular testing, this rate is probably much higher. Pediatricians should bear in mind childhood multiple sclerosis when faced with unexplained vertigo in a child.
我们描述了一例以眩晕为首发表现的儿童多发性硬化症病例。对丹佛儿童医院的14例病例进行回顾发现,其中4例的首发症状为眩晕。这一比例与成人发病率非常接近。应用客观的前庭测试后,这一比例可能会高得多。儿科医生在面对儿童不明原因的眩晕时应考虑到儿童多发性硬化症。
