The underlying cause is thought to be an increase in endolymphatic pressure. Otoconia dislodgement is associated with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. CN VIII demyelination can be seen in conditions like multiple sclerosis. Ossicle fixation is related to conductive hearing loss (e.g., otosclerosis).
