## Abstract ## Objectives/Hypothesis: Identify correlations among __SLC26A4__ genotype, cochlear structural anomalies, and hearing loss associated with enlargement of the vestibular aqueduct (EVA). ## Study Design: Prospective cohort survey, National Institutes of Health, Clinical Center, a fede
The most common form of inner ear abnormality, enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA), is of particular interest because it is associated with characteristic clinical findings, including fluctuating and sometimes progressive sensorineural hearing loss and disequilibrium symptoms. Although EVA has been r
Mutations in the GJB2 gene encoding the gap-junction protein connexin 26 have been identified in many patients with childhood hearing impairment (HI). One single mutation, c.35delG, accounts for the majority of mutations in Caucasian patients with HI. In the present study we screened 500 healthy con
