  • Look Inside

 Two cases of vertigo due to psychogenic origin in young children are reported.

 In the first case, aged 9, who had frequent attacks of migraine headache was suddenly affected with vertigo. The EEG taken during the patient's light sleep showed high voltage with slow waves which pointed to epilepsy. Psychiatric study of the patient disclosed that her affections were due to disturbed emotion caused by absence of the parents from the home during theday. Shortening of the mother's working hours brought recovery of the patient's health.

 The second case a girl, aged 9, had transient vertigo and blackout on several occasions. The attacks were considered as of psychogenic inorigin because they had occurred since the parents were divorced from each other.

 Both cases were considered as manifest dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system.
