Abstract
Results are reported of the effect ov various surgical methods on vertigo in Meniere's disease. Minor procedures like sacculotomy or application of NaCl crystals in the round window may effect a cure, but often results in deaf ears. Vestibular nerve section seems to offer the best relief of vertigo, while generally still preserving residual hearing.Keywords
