Method:We prospectively collected 16 cases of familial Meniere' disease diagnosed in our vertigo outpatient. The patients were divide into without migraine group (WOM) and with migraine group (WM). Give WM group a prophylactic therapy for migraine and compare within groups about the follow-up results of vertigo episodes.
