Brief Summary: The goal of this exploratory study is to gain a better understanding of the symptomatology of idiopathic bilateral vestibulopathy IBV by characterising as precisely as possible the type and intensity of each patients peripheral vestibular deficit and to investigate the link between this symptomatology and some functions influenced by the vestibular system ie cognitive emotional vegetative functions
Detailed Description: Bilateral vestibulopathy BV is defined as total or partial impairment of vestibular function on both sides leading to chronic postural and visual instability Idiopathic bilateral vestibulopathy IBV is a rare condition characterised by acquired BV of unknown aetiology Although described more than thirty years ago IBV remains a condition with imperfectly understood contours mechanisms and consequences

The peripheral vestibular system located in the inner ear is the main balance organ Sensory information from the vestibular system is distributed to different brain structures which perform a wide range of functions such as maintaining stability of gaze and posture controlling certain functions such as sleep spatial memory and emotional processes and perceiving movement spatial orientation and self-image

The most common symptoms of IBV are persistent postural instability and when moving the head and body a reduction in visual acuity that can go as far as a sensation of instability of the visual environment Patients also often report problems with orientation and spatial memory poor body shape sleep disorders attentional problems and anxiety or depression Because little is known about this disease diagnosis often comes late after several years of various explorations and consultations with doctors and specialists

Based on the observation that patients suffering from IBV have heterogeneous peripheral impairments both qualitatively type of sensory organ affected and quantitatively the impairment is more or less complete and that the sometimes complex symptomatology is difficult to relate to the type of peripheral deficit the aim of this project is to gain a better understanding of the symptomatology of IBV by evaluating certain functions that have recently been shown to be influenced by the vestibular system and to relate this to the type and intensity of the peripheral deficit

Hence the main aim of this project is to study the link between symptomatology - both classic posturo-oculomotor and cognitive emotional and vegetative - and the type and intensity of vestibular disorder
