Abstract
Sirs: Central positioning downbeat nystagmus (pDBN) presents with transient nystagmus in supine or the head hanging position in the absence of DBN in the head erect position. In contrast to central positional downbeat nystagmus, pDBN requires rapid head posi- tioning manoeuvres to be elicited. The pathomechanism and therapy of central pDBN is not yet known and circumscribed lesions are missing so far [1, 2]. We examined the effect of 3,4-diaminopyridine (DAP) [3, 4] on the oculomotor behavior of a patient with pDBN.
