1861年，梅尼埃在法国医学院发表了一篇论文，描述了一系列发作性眩晕和听力损失的患者。他还提到对一名年轻女孩的尸检，这名女孩在内耳出血后出现眩晕。在此之前，眩晕被认为是一种类似于癫痫发作的大脑症状。梅尼埃指出，眩晕通常是良性的，而普通的治疗方法，如出血，往往弊大于利。他并没有试图定义一种疾病或综合征，而是强调眩晕可能源于内耳的损伤。关于梅尼埃病的临床和病理特征的混乱一直持续到世纪。
In 1861, Prosper Meniere presented a paper before the French Academy of Medicine in which he described a series of patients with episodic vertigo and hearing loss. He also mentioned the postmortem examination of a young girl who experienced vertigo after a hemorrhage into the inner ear. Prior to that time, vertigo was thought to be a cerebral symptom similar to epileptic seizures. Meniere pointed out that vertigo frequently had a benign course and that common treatments, such as bleeding, often did more harm than good. He was not attempting to define a disease or syndrome but rather to emphasize that vertigo could originate from damage to the inner ear. Confusion regarding the clinical and pathologic features of Meniere disease persisted well into the 20th century.
