Abstract

Last spring, the IV International Symposium on Meniere's Disease was held in Paris, timed to coincide with the 200th anniversary of the birth of Prosper Meniere. Scientists from all over the world took part in the symposium. During it, all aspects of Meniere's disease were discussed. At the presentation on epidemiology and pathogenesis, participants were able to familiarize themselves with new concepts in the field of the etiology of the disease, and during the sessions of the sections on clinical and audio-vestibular studies and diagnostics, those present exchanged valuable information from their own experience. Finally, participants discussed the benefits of various treatments for Meniere's disease, including drug therapy (with betahistine dihydrochloride), surgery, and in situ treatment.
