We reported fistula symptoms in three patients with congenital syphilis, one with sudden deafness and two with cochleovestibular disorders of unknown origin. Fistula symptoms in all six cases were atypical, so we emphasize that nystagmus is not the only symptom. Whether nystagmus or deviation is present depends upon the intensity of the stimulus and the degree of labyrinthine impairment. We observed pendular eye movements, when the external auditory canals were repeatedly compressed and decompressed with the patients' own fingers. Because of the various patterns on electronystagmography, it was suspected that the histopathology in these six patients was different.
