| Description |
Spontaneous downbeat nystagmus (DBN) is typically present in the primary position with a downward fast-phase and slow upward drift. There are at least three different proposed mechanisms for DBN: vertical semicircular canal asymmetric impairments, up-down Purkinje asymmetry, and otolithic tone imbalance within the vertical vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) pathway. DBN localizes well to the cerebellar flocculus/paraflocculus, and occasionally DBN can result from involvement of the cerebellar nodulus/uvula or even the brainstem paramedian tracts. |
