AB  - Equilibrium  is  the  ability  to  maintain  orientation  of  the  body  and  its  parts  in  relation  to  external  space.  It  depends  on  continuous  visual,  labyrinthine,  and  proprioceptive  somatosensory  input  and  its  integration  in  the  brainstem  and  cerebellum.  Disorders  of  equilibrium  result  from  diseases  that  affect  central  or  peripheral  vestibular  pathways,  the  cerebellum,  or  sensory  pathways  involved  in  proprioception.  Such  disorders  usually  present  with  one  of  two  clinical  problems:  vertigo  or  ataxia.
