Identification of Novel Candidate Genes and Variants for Hearing Loss and Temporal Bone Anomalies.

Hearing loss remains an important global health problem that is potentially addressed through early identification of a genetic etiology, which helps to predict outcomes of hearing rehabilitation such as cochlear implantation and also to mitigate the long-term effects of comorbidities. The identification of variants for hearing loss and detailed descriptions of clinical phenotypes in patients from various populations are needed to improve the utility of clinical genetic screening for hearing loss. Clinical and exome data from 15 children with hearing loss were reviewed.
