    AbstractBenign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is one of the most common peripheral vestibular disorders. Particle repositioning maneuvers are simple and effective treatments for patients with BPPV. This study included 37 consecutive cases of BPPV treated with the particle repositioning maneuver of Epley. 97% of patients improved and the maneuver was well tolerated. We conclude that Epley Maneuver is safe and effective in the treatment of BPPV.
