    AbstractDizziness and vertigo are among the most common symptoms in neurology and medicine in general. The differential diagnosis may be simplified by systematic and careful assessment of presenting symptoms. The most common conditions associated with vertigo and dizziness can be diagnosed by patient history and physical examination alone. Extensive apparative diagnostic work-up is seldomly required and often not helpful. The majority of these disorders can be well treated and have an excellent prognosis, when diagnosed adequately and within a reasonable time frame to prevent the development of chronic disease.© Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New York.
