Connexin 26 deafness is not always congenital.

International journal of pediatric otorhinolaryngology - 1 Mar 2007

Orzan Eva, Murgia Alessandra

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Hearing loss associated with mutations of the GJB2, the gene encoding Connexin 26 (Cx26), is described as a prelingual, bilateral, prevalently stable sensorineural defect ranging in severity from mild to profound. Despite many clinical studies, there is still a limited knowledge about the severity of Cx26 hearing loss at birth, in the postnatal period or in early infancy; some authors have reported...
