Summary: A descriptive case series of the presentation, diagnosis, treatment and outcome of eight horses presenting to a UK equine veterinary hospital with suspected idiopathic peripheral vestibular syndrome over a 7‐year period (2014–2021). Idiopathic vestibular syndrome in the horse causes unilateral clinical signs including; ataxia, nystagmus, strabismus and a head tilt. Diagnosis is aided by neurological examination, endoscopy of the upper airway and cross‐sectional imaging (i.e. magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography). This case series indicates that horses with this condition can make a full recovery with return to ridden exercise. Treatment with anti‐inflammatory medication did not appear to influence outcome.
