    AbstractDizziness is not a unique clinical picture, but rather is the unspecific symptom of numerous diseases. Dizziness always develops when the real incoming vestibular, visual and somatosensory information contradict each other and the expected input signals. Disorders of the vestibular apparatus are the most frequent cause of dizziness; in contrast, cervicogenic causes play a secondary role. Dizziness syndromes usually have a favourable prognosis and can be successfully treated.
