We report a case of lateral semicircular canal cupulolithiasis in a 12 years old child. He presented to ENT clinic due to vertigo and nausea for 4 hours. Roll test showed strong apogeotropic nystagmus for about 70 seconds when roll to the left recumbent position. The right lateral semicircular canal cupulolithiasis was diagnosed. The child was treated with the Li's quick repositioning maneuver and the vertigo was disappeared. His symptoms did not occurred after 6 months follow-up.

Background: We present a feasibility study on the development of a 3D-printed (3DP) model of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) and its validation as an educational tool for training in therapeutic maneuvers.
Methods: A 1.5:1 3DP model of the human labyrinth, supplemented by a 1:1 3DP model of the skull, was obtained from a computed tomography scan.

Objective: The objective of the study is to analyze and explore the characteristics of the video head impulse test (vHIT) for light cupula in the idiopathic horizontal semicircular canal and compare them with those of horizontal semicircular canal cupulolithiasis (HC-cu) in order to investigate the potential mechanism involved.
Methods: Data from 51 cases of idiopathic light cupula and 42 cases of horizontal semicircular canal cupulolithiasis were retrospectively analyzed. The positional nystagmus features, vHIT anomaly rate, gain value, saccades, and other indicators were compared.

This study investigates human semicircular canal (SCC) dynamics under off-center rotational conditions. Previous research has modeled human rotational perception and the dynamic response of the SCCs by assuming a centered rotation state, where the rotation axis aligns with the SCC's center. However, this assumption is not representative of most real-life rotational situations.

Background: Lateral semicircular canal BPPV (LC-BPPV) is diagnosed by the head roll test (HRT), in which the head is rotated to move particles in the lateral canal, causing nystagmus. The body roll test (BRT) is performed in a rolling position with the body and head together, which has the advantage of safely rotating the head at the correct angle in both directions. This study aims to assess the diagnostic utility of the body roll test (BRT).

Objectives: This study aimed to determine if the presence of corrective saccades during video head impulse test (vHIT) stimulation of the bilateral posterior semicircular canals (PSCs) correlated with other vestibular test results, demographics, symptoms, or diagnoses.
Design: This study was a retrospective chart review where 1006 subjects' vHIT records were screened with 17 subjects meeting inclusion criteria for isolated bilateral PSC saccades.
Results: Of the 1006 patients undergoing vHIT testing, only 1.
