Abstract: Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of benign paroxysmal vertigo(BPV)in preschool and school-age children. Methods Findings from 48 children with BPV, who completed vertigo questionnaires and underwent audiological and vestibular function examinations, were analyzed. Results The patients were 3-12 years old(mean 7.0)and included 22 boys and 26 girls. Twenty-five children were of preschool-age, while 23 were of school-age. The rates of nausea and vomiting in preschool and school-age children were 35.7%(10/28)and 64.3%(18/28), balance dysfunction were 85.7%(12/14)and 14.3%(2/14), and headache were 18.2%(2/11)and 81.8%(9/11), respectively. The difference between the two groups for these three parameters was statistically significant. There was no statistically significant difference between pre-school and school-age children for pure tone audiometry, acoustic conduction, high stimulation rate ABR, and caloric test. Conclusion BPV in preschoolers and school-age children differs with regard to clinical presentation of symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, balance disorder, and headache.
