Abstract excerpt
Hearing loss (HL) is a heterogenous trait with pathogenic variants in more than 200 genes that have been discovered in studies involving small and large HL families. Over one-third of families with hereditary HL remain etiologically undiagnosed after screening for mutations in the recognized genes. Genetic heterogeneity complicates the analysis in multiplex families where variants in more than one gene can be...
