To evaluate the effective incidence of vascular factor in the recurrence of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), we studied 50 subjects, 32 affected by idiopathic recurrent BPPV (study group) and 18 healthy subjects (control group). All subjects underwent complete otoneurological balance and haemodynamic evaluation by extracranial colour-coded duplex sonography (ECCS) of vertebral arteries (VA) with indication of arterial flow in ml/min, and retinal fluorangiography (FAG). The ECCS of 19 patients (59.3%) within the study group presented a reduction in vertebral arterial flow, exceeding the limits established by normative values ( 29 ml/min.
