Özet

Vestibular migraine ( VM) is one of the most common causes of episodic vertigo, but it can be missed in patients complaining of dizziness. This report describes the case of a 46-year-old woman with episodic vertigo attacks and a history of migrainous headaches. Some of the vertigo attacks were accompanied by a migraine. Gaze-induced nystagmus was present during attacks, but regressed with medication. Ear, nose, and throat evaluation; laboratory; imaging findings; and hearing test results were normal. Treatment with 500 mg valproic acid led to a rapid response in this case. VM should be considered in neurological examinations on the basis of clinical symptomatology.
