Presenter: Patricia Gaffney, AuD MPH, BC-VA, DFAAA

Description:

Vestibular disorders in animals may present with head tilt, ataxia, nystagmus, and other signs that can mimic central or peripheral pathology. This session explores comparative vestibular anatomy across species, emphasizing variations that influence clinical presentation. Common etiologies include congenital syndromes, otitis media/interna, infections, and idiopathic syndromes. Epidemiologic data and breed predispositions will be highlighted alongside diagnostic approaches including neurologic exam, imaging, and laboratory evaluation. Case studies from companion animals and exotic species illustrate real-world patterns. Participants will gain insight into differential diagnosis, treatment strategies, and prognosis to improve recognition and management of vestibular disorders.
