Head tilt in horses.

Head tilt in the horse is commonly a sign of either central or peripheral vestibular disease. The confirmation of vestibular disease is based on physical findings, including results of cranial-nerve function evaluation and observation of stance, posture, and gait. Further localization is made by ancillary tests such as cerebral spinal fluid analysis, electrodiagnostic testing, and radiography. The normal anatomy and physiology of the vestibular system, the abnormal clinical signs demonstrated during physical examination, and the various etiologies are discussed.

Vestibular disease, and its relationship to facial paralysis in the horse: a clinical study of 7 cases.

The signs observed in 6 cases of peripheral vestibular disease included incoordination, head tilt and nystagmus. The intensity of the signs varied greatly with duration of the disease, and in 3 cases facial paralysis was also present. Tympanosclerosis was demonstrable in all cases subject to radiology. Trauma was the causative factor in most cases. The causes of, and relationships between, vestibular dysfunction and concomitant facial paralysis are discussed. The exact etiology of the tympanosclerosis is unknown.

Peripheral vestibular syndrome in the dog: a review of 83 cases.

Clinical data and follow-up evaluations of 83 cases of peripheral vestibular syndrome in the dog were reviewed. The absence of physical abnormalities of the tympanic membrane and absence of radiographic changes within the tympanic bulla or petrous temporal bone were the criteria used to make the diagnosis of idiopathic benign vestibular disease. When grouped according to the cause of the syndrome, most of the dogs had been diagnosed as having either otitis media/interna (49%) or idiopathic benign vestibular disease (39%). Clinical evidence suggested that most of the cases of otitis media/interna were secondary to otitis externa.
