Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Hearing loss is one of the major public health problems, with a genetic etiology in more than 60% of cases. Connexin 26 and connexin 30 mutations are the most prevalent causes of deafness. The aim of this study is to characterize and to establish the prevalence of the GJB2 and GJB6 gene mutations in a population of cochlear implanted recipients from Eastern Romania, this being the first report of this...
