Abstract
Tumarkin's otolithic crisis refers to drop attacks of vestibular origins. It usually occurs without warning in patients with late or end-stage endolymphatic hydrops. However, drop attacks of vestibular origins may occur in patients without otologic deficit. We report a patient with Tumarkin's otolithic crisis from delayed endolymphatic hydrops. The careful delineation of drop attacks in patients with vertigo can provide appropriate therapeutic options for patients with this potentially dangerous condition.Key Words: Drop attack, Vertigo, Otolithic crisisKey Words: Drop attack, Vertigo, Otolithic crisis
