The differential diagnosis must include various entities but the clinical history should provide important clues for diagnosis. In the clinical cases presented, the symptom which was “different” from the usual was worsening in orthostatic position and improvement with ambulation, which was contrary to the usual reports from patients with chronic instability secondary to vestibulopathy. The need for further investigation generally stems from the fact that vestibular examination tends to be normal except in those cases with comorbidities (as in cases 1 and 4 presented here).</p><p id="par0145" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The most common misdiagnosis may be due to unfamiliarity with this process.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a> Given its atypical features, it is common to diagnose patients with psychogenic instability after ruling out vestibular or systemic disease.
