2 Six (50%) of twelve patients showed normal galvanic body sway response at the first examination.
3 Twe (33.3%) of six patients with abnormal galvanic body sway response restored to normal.
4 The restoration of caloric and galvanic response were found in same patients after 1 or 2 years from first examination.
