Abstract excerpt
We have investigated a three-generation family with an autosomal dominant low-mid frequency hearing loss. Audiograms show consistently a hearing threshold of 50+/-20 db hearing loss (HL) between 250 Hz and 1-2 kHz. Normal hearing level was reached between 3 and 6 kHz in all examined children. Adult patients show an additional hearing impairment (HI) in the mid and higher frequencies that seems to differ from...
