Transient Response to Liberation Maneuvers in Central Positional Nystagmus Due to Cerebral Metastases Mimicking Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo– A Case Report
Short-lasting responses to liberation maneuvers may also be seen in CPN, mimicking the response-pattern expected in BPPV cases. Thus, response to treatment must be validated on a follow-up consultation. Pressure by a cystic cerebellar mass lesion on the nodulus and uvula that varies with changing head-position relative to gravity, resulting in adaptational changes in PN direction and intensity could explain our findings.
