Abstract
• Nystagmoid eye movements elicited by humming loudly was initially misdiagnosed as Tullio's phenomenon (abnormal acoustical stimulation of the vestibular apparatus owing to labyrinthine fistula). Further workup lead to a final diagnosis of a form of voluntary nystagmus characterized in some reports as "hysterical nystagmus." Some of the characteristics of this example of voluntary nystagmus differed from generally accepted descriptions.
