Abstract excerpt
Autosomal dominant (AD) familial Meniere's disease (FMD) is a rare disorder involving the inner ear defined by sensorineural hearing loss, tinnitus and episodic vertigo. Here, we have identified two novel and rare heterozygous variants in the SEMA3D and DPT genes segregating with the complete phenotype that have variable expressivity in two pedigrees with AD-FMD. A detailed characterization of the phenotype...
