This persistent form of BPPV is thought to have a different underlying pathophysiology than the generally accepted canalolithiasis theory. We investigated 5 patients who did not respond to physical treatment, presented with an atypical concomitant nystagmus or both with high-resolution three-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging of the inner ear. This method provides an excellent imaging of the inner ear fluid spaces. In all 5 patients, we found structural changes such as fractures or filling defects in the semicircular canals which we did not find in control groups. One patient clinically presented with the symptoms of a 'heavy cupula'. Whereas crosssections through the ampullary region and the adjoining utricle showed no abnormalities, there were significant structural changes in the semicircular canals, which are able to provide an explanation for the symptoms of a heavy cupula.

Research paper thumbnail of Canalolithiasis of the superior semicircular canal: an anomaly in benign paroxysmal vertigo

Other parts of the vestibular organ are rarely affected, and it is mainly the horizontal canal that is affected by this atypical form of BPPV. Canalolithiasis of the superior semicircular canal must be considered an anomaly because the superior semicircular canal is the highest point of the vestibular organ and debris normally cannot collect in this special location. Until now, BPPV of the superior canal has mainly been dealt with theoretically in the literature. The authors present three patients with canalolithiasis of the superior semicircular canal and offer direct proof of the condition using high-resolution 3D MRI.
