Insuficiencia arterial, Síntomas, VértigosAbstract
Se estudian 280 pacientes atendidos en la consulta de patología vestibular del Hospital Universitario "Abel Santamaría" de Pinar del Río entre enero de 1998 y julio de 1999, por presentar vértigos. En la totalidad de los casos se utiliza un cuestionario con su código de calificación para identificar de manera rápida y eficaz el vértigo de origen cervical. Una vez establecido el diagnóstico de síndrome de insuficiencia arterial vertebrobasilar extracraneal en 100 pacientes, se estudian en cada uno de ellas las siguientes variantes: síntomas más representativos, edad y sexo, ocupación y alteración cervical causal. Se expone asimismo, el relativo valor diagnóstico de los Rx de columna cervical y el error de considerar la edad como un parámetro confiable para el diagnóstico cuando en cualquier etapa de la vida existen causas cervicales capaces de desencadenar el cuadro vertiginoso.
