Vertigo and Balance Disorders
Comprehensive clinical evaluation and treatment for vertigo, BPPV, Meniere's disease, labyrinthitis, vestibular migraine, and unsteadiness in Bhubaneswar.
Clinical Overview & Surgical Philosophy
Dizziness and spinning sensations can severely impair daily independence and cause disabling anxiety. As an experienced neurotology and vertigo specialist in Bhubaneswar, Dr. Radhamadhab Sahu delivers evidence-based vestibular diagnosis and targeted rehabilitation. Combining videonystagmography, canalith repositioning manoeuvres (Epley, Semont), intratympanic perfusion therapies, and surgical decompressive solutions, patients receive thorough, individualized care to restore lasting equilibrium.
Conditions & Disorders Treated
Comprehensive diagnostic workup and evidence-based therapeutic pathways for complex disorders.
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)
Dislodged calcium carbonate crystals (otoconia) in the semicircular canals causing brief, intense spinning triggered by head positional changes.
Meniere's Disease & Endolymphatic Hydrops
Excess inner ear fluid pressure presenting as episodic vertigo spells, fluctuating sensorineural hearing loss, roaring tinnitus, and aural fullness.
Vestibular Neuritis & Acute Labyrinthitis
Viral inflammation of the vestibular nerve resulting in sudden, severe continuous vertigo lasting days, often accompanied by gait instability.
Vestibular Migraine & Central Dizziness
Recurrent vestibular symptoms associated with migrainous neurovascular pathophysiology, light sensitivity, and motion sickness.
Cervicogenic Dizziness & Postural Instability
Equilibrium disturbances originating from cervical spine proprioceptive dysfunction paired with vestibular deconditioning.
Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness (PPPD)
Chronic non-spinning dizziness, swaying sensations, and visual motion hypersensitivity persisting after acute vestibular insults.
Comprehensive Neurotology & Equilibrium Care
Combining microscopic ear surgery expertise with advanced neurotological diagnostic protocols, Dr. Sahu differentiates peripheral inner ear vertigo from dangerous central neurological causes.

Verified Surgical Procedures
Procedures performed with advanced endoscopic visualization, optical guidance, and tissue-sparing techniques.
Canalith Repositioning Manoeuvres (Epley, Semont, Barbecue Roll)
In-office, non-invasive therapeutic maneuvers designed to clear dislodged otoconia crystals from posterior, horizontal, or anterior semicircular canals.
Intratympanic Perfusion Therapy (Steroid & Gentamicin)
Micro-injection of neuro-therapeutic agents across the tympanic membrane directly into the middle ear for refractory Meniere's disease.
Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy (VRT)
Customized neuro-plastic exercises enhancing central nervous system compensation, gaze stability, and postural balance confidence.
Endolymphatic Sac Decompression Surgery
Microsurgical decompression of the endolymphatic sac to alleviate severe hydrostatic pressure in persistent medically refractory hydrops.
When Should You Seek Professional Evaluation?
If you or a family member experience any of the following persistent symptoms, a specialized examination by an otolaryngologist is strongly advised:
- Sudden sensation that the room or surroundings are violently spinning
- Dizziness triggered by rolling over in bed, looking upward, or bending down
- Unsteadiness, veering while walking, or feeling pulled to one side
- Fluctuating ear fullness, low-frequency buzzing tinnitus, or hearing dips
- Nausea, cold sweats, and vomiting accompanying dizzy spells
Diagnostic Pathway & Preoperative Workup
1. Positional Testing & Nystagmus Mapping
Dix-Hallpike and Supine Roll tests utilizing Frenzel lenses or infrared videonystagmography to identify the affected semicircular canal.
2. Audiological & Impedance Battery
Pure Tone Audiometry (PTA) and electrocochleography (ECoG) to assess cochlear involvement and endolymphatic hydrops.
3. High-Resolution Neuroimaging
Contrast MRI Brain and Cerebellopontine (CP) Angle to rule out acoustic neuromas, vascular loops, or central demyelinating lesions.
