Static and Dynamic Posturography in Patients With Vestibular and Cerebellar Lesions

Abstract

Although sway amplitude and velocity were consistently increased in patients with bilateral vestibular loss and patients with cerebellar atrophy, none of the posturography measurements reliably distinguished the 2 patient groups. The finding of increased frequency of sway in the anteroposterior direction in patients with cerebellar atrophy was of limited value since the tremor was visible at the bedside.
