Abstract
the author dealed with the etiology, symptomatology, therapeutics of Lermoyez's syndrome from the past literatures.
The patient who shows the clinical pattern described by Lermoyez seems to be rare.
Two cases in which Lermoyez's syndrome was appeared in the course of Ménière's disease were reported.
The first case was a 32 years old male. The patient complained of deafness and tinnitus, but the hearing became good after a sudden vertigo. Which was consistent withiLermoyez's expression.
The second one was a 56 years old male. This patient complained of vertigo, tinnitus and deafness at the outset, but the recurring attacks of vertigo were followed by disappearance of tinnitus and the improvement of hearing.
The author thought Lermoyez's syndrome and Meniere's disease are similar etiology.
