Abstract:
Besides meningism, dizziness has also been frequently reported as a neurologic manifestation of Vogt- Koyanagi-Harada(VKH) syndrome. These neurotologic symptoms usually develop just before or after ocular involvement. We report the patient with VKH syndrome who showed recurrent peripheral vertigo. The characteristic opthalmological symptoms developed later in this case.
