특발성 양성 돌발성 체위변환성 어지럼 여성 환자에서골밀도 검사의 결과 = Results of Bone Mineral Density Measurement in Woman Patientswith Idiopathic Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Background and Objectives：It has ben proposed that displaced particles arising from otoconial degeneration are the leading cause of idiopathic BPV (iBPPV)being related to a disturbance in calcium metabolism. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of bone mineral density (BMD) measurement in women with iBPV. Subjects and Method：Fifty-four women with iBPV underwent BMD test and the results were given as a T-score. We compared the T-scores of the patients with those of 173 healthy women by age and by the presence of menopause, and we also compared the T-scores by type of iBPV among the premenopausal patients. Results：In al (p<.001). Regardles of the presence of menopause, the mean T-score in the patients was significantly lower than that in the control group (p<.001). By type of iBPV, there was no significant diference in the T-scores among the groups. Conclusion：This study demonstrates that the val-ues of BMD measurement in women with iBPV were significantly lower than in the control group regardles of age or the pres-the utility of the therapy for disturbed calcium metabolism to decrease the recurrence of iBPV.
