The Barany society published recently the consensus document for the diagnostic criteria of persistent postural perceptual dizziness (PPPD). In this commentary we highlight the benefits of this new diagnosis and possible problems that can arise during the use of the criteria in day to day clinical practice at a University Clinic for Psychosomatic Medicine. The diagnostic criteria of PPPD are compared to those of somatic symptom disorder and bodily distress disorder. We think that a discussion from a psychosomatic point of view is important to improve the understanding between different specialties and how PPPD fits into the broader framework of psychosomatic medicine.
