ABSTRACT Objective Vertigo may or may not be associated with hearing loss. In addition, the imaging findings are often subtle. Underdiagnosis of cause of vertigo on imaging can lead to long standing annoying symptom of vertigo. Conclusion This article reviews the radiologic findings of vertigo. After completing this article, the readers should have an improved ability to diagnose the common causes of vertigo, using the optimal imaging tools to achieve this goal.

Breast, lung, and prostate cancers are the three most common malignancies to metastasize to the temporal bone. Still, metastatic prostate cancer of the temporal bone is a rare finding, with approximately 21 cases reported in the literature and only 2 cases discovered more than 10 years after initial treatment of the primary. This disease may be asymptomatic and discovered incidentally; however, hearing loss, otalgia, cranial nerve palsies, and visual changes can all be presenting symptoms. We present the case of a 95-year-old man with history of primary prostate cancer treated 12 years earlier that was seen for new-onset asymmetric hearing loss and otalgia. The tympanic membranes and middle ears were normal; however, based on radiologic findings and eventual biopsy, the patient was diagnosed with extensive metastatic prostate cancer to the left temporal bone. This case (1) demonstrates that a high index of suspicion for unusual etiologies of seemingly benign symptoms must be maintained in elderly patients having prior history of cancer and (2) substantiates the value of temporal bone imaging when diagnosis may be unclear from history and physical exam.

Patients with asymmetric or progressive hearing impairment warrant evaluation for the cause of their loss. We present a 72–year–old woman with near life–long hearing loss in one ear and a history of contralateral slowly progressive hearing loss. The audiometric and radiologic findings are demonstrated along with discussion of the management of acoustic neuroma in an only hearing ear.
