Abstract
This paper presents diagnostic criteria for Menisre's disease jointly formulated by the Classification Committee of the Barany Society, The Japan Society for Equilibrium Research, the European Academy of Otology and Neurotology (EAONO), the Equilibrium Committee of the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS) and the Korean Balance Society. The classification includes 2 categories: definite Menisre's disease and probable Menisre's disease. The diagnosis of definite Menisre's disease is based on clinical criteria and requires the observation of an episodic vertigo syndrome associated with low-to mediumfrequency sensorineural hearing loss and fluctuating aural symptoms (hearing, tinnitus and/ or fullness) in the affected ear. Duration of vertigo episodes is limited to a period between 20 min and 12 h. Probable Menisre's disease is a broader concept defined by episodic vestibular symptoms (vertigo or dizziness) associated with fluctuating aural symptoms occurring in a period from 20 min to 24 h.
