Objective: To report left-sided peripheral vestibular failure as the cause of dizziness in a 12-year-old boy diagnosed as having chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS).
Design: Retrospective case report with review of literature and discussion.
Setting: Tertiary children's hospital.
Conclusion: We recommend proper vestibular assessment for CFS patients presenting with dizziness, as effective treatment for peripheral vestibular disorder exists in the form of balance rehabilitation exercises.
