Acute vestibular syndrome: is skew deviation a central sign?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Journal of Neurology"
DOI: 10.1007/s00415-021-10692-6
Abstract: Skew deviation results from a dysfunction of the graviceptive pathways in patients with an acute vestibular syndrome (AVS) leading to vertical diplopia due to vertical ocular misalignment. It is considered as a central sign, however,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2022.920357
Abstract: Objective A three-step bedside test (“HINTS”: Head Impulse-Nystagmus-Test of Skew), is a well-established way to differentiate peripheral from central causes in patients with acute vestibular syndrome (AVS). Nowadays, the use of videooculography gives physicians the… read more here.
