Summary Three cases of transient vertigo, which was the only or initial symptom and supposed to be caused by ischaemia in the carotid artery distribution, are reported. All cases recovered from vertigo after a superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass operation or after a completion of the MCA occlusion. The mechanism of so-called cerebral vertigo is discussed with some references.
