Abstract
In vestibular neuritis, in cases with severe decrease of gain in the horizontal canal (initial value less than 0.5), the canal has a 50 per cent chance to recover significantly. The vertical canals have worse prognosis, and especially the inferior canals seldom improve. Slight, isolated horizontal canal vestibular neuritis may cause acute vestibular syndrome, most probably by the same mechanism as full-blown vestibular neuritis. In these cases, the three-step bedside oculomotor test may indicate cerebellar stroke (may be false positive).
