| Abstract |
An ocular tilt reaction (OTR) is a triad of a skew deviation, head tilt, and ocular counter-roll that can be partial or complete. An OTR can occur anywhere along the utriculo-ocular motor pathways from the labyrinth to the interstitial nucleus of Cajal but is almost always central in origin. In acute vestibular neuritis (AVN), case reports have described patients with an OTR due to AVN, although it is unclear whether this examination finding is common or rare. |
