Abstract
The current paper reports on a patient with recurrent rotational vertigo and persistent dizziness and imbalance lasting weeks, who underwent extensive neurootological and radiological examination. Pathological findings initially included right-sided benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), persistent horizontal spontaneous nystagmus (SPN) to the left and a pathological bedside and video head impulse test (HIT) on the left. The pathological HIT on the left and SPN to the left indicated a central genesis. Therefore, cMRI was performed and revealed a left-sided cerebral infarction in the territory of the medial branch of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery (mPICA).
