Psychogenic (functional) vertigo is in second place by frequency after benign positional paroxysmal vertigo. It is often difficult to make the diagnosis, diagnostic program is expensive and traditional treatment often is not effective. This literature review covers current concepts on the terminology, clinical signs, pathogenesis and treatment approaches with regard to functional vertigo. Special attention is given to cerebral mechanisms of the pathogenesis including cognitive aspects.

Hair cells (HCs) are essential for vestibular function, and irreversible damage to vestibular HCs in mammals is closely associated with vertigo. The stimulation of HC regeneration through exogenous gene delivery represents an ideal therapeutic approach for restoring vestibular function. Overexpression of Atoh1, Pou4f3, and Gfi1 (collectively referred to as APG) has demonstrated efficacy in promoting HC regeneration in the cochlea.

Transverse myelitis (TM), a poorly understood neurological disorder, can manifest in various clinical scenarios. We report a unique case where TM presented in a background of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). The patient, an otherwise healthy female, experienced a rapid onset of symptoms, culminating in complete left-sided hemiparesis and exacerbation of BPPV characteristics.

Introduction: POT1 tumor predisposition (POT1-TPD) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by increased lifetime malignancy risk. Melanoma, angiosarcoma, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia are the most frequently reported malignancies [1]. Protection of telomeres protein 1 (POT1) is part of the shelterin protein complex to maintain/protect telomeres [2].
