OTOG was identified as a nonsyndrmoic hearing loss gene in 2012 in two families with nonprogressive mild-to-moderate hearing loss. However, no further literature have this gene for nonsyndromic hearing loss. Furthermore, it is still unclear whether vestibular impairment is involved or not in patients with mutations in OTOG. This study presents a validated second report for homozygous causative mutations in OTOG...
