Our analysis suggests that imaging and audiology testing have relatively low yield in the assessment of pediatric vertigo. On the other hand, vestibular testing detected a high proportion of abnormalities, such as saccadic pursuit, vertical nystagmus, central positional nystagmus, and abnormal directional preponderance, particularly associated with vestibular migraine. Given the complexity of diagnosing vertigo in children, it is critical to establish multidisciplinary specialized centers capable of providing accurate diagnosis and treatment for these children.
