Changes of static posturography and cVEMP testing before and after a glycerol drip in a 69-year-old man with unilateral MD, in which significant endolymphatic hydrops (EH) was confirmed on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on the diseased side, were evaluated. Values of total locus lengths, areas of postural sway, and their Romberg ratios were decreased after the glycerol drip. On cVEMP testing, the diseased ear demonstrated a 375% larger amplitude than the contralateral ear before treatment, but both ears showed almost the same responses after treatment. An augmented response on cVEMP testing and a decrease following treatment for MD reflect the diversity of clinical findings in MD. Responses on cVEMP testing may relate not only to the degree of EH, but also be due to abnormal acoustic energy absorbance transmitted into the saccule., This is an Open Access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License.
