Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The molecular causes of auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) are not well known. Identification of the pathogenic mutations underlying nonsyndromic ANSD is difficult because of its extremely heterogeneous trait. The aim of the present study was to identify the genetic etiology of a single Chinese patient diagnosed with congenital ANSD by targeted next-generation sequencing. METHODS: Targeted...
