ABSTRACT
It has been known that the vestibular system is concerned with feelings of dizziness or vertigo. The vestibulo-thalamic pathway has also been described previously. However, there has been no confirmative report so far regarding the pathway through the internal capsule to the cortex. We have experienced 13 patients with symptoms of dizziness and/or vertigo whose lesions are located only around the internal capsule, mainly at the posterior limb and/or the genu. It is suggestive that fibers with dizziness may pass through a part of the internal capsule, probably through some part of the posterior limb and/or the genu.
