- Abstract: It is difficult to distinguish acute labyrinthine artery infarction from peripheral vertigo conditions, such as vestibular neuritis and labyrinthitis. Despite comprehensive neurological examinations, differentiating between these conditions remains challenging, and standard computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans may not always reveal acute labyrinthine artery infarction. This case report suggests that a thorough evaluation using susceptibility-weighted imaging on MRI may be helpful in detecting the early signs of labyrinthine infarction.
