Phenotypes of hearing impaired carriers of SLC26A5 IVS2-2A>G.

Case Type of Hearing Loss; Age at onset Associated Anomalies Family History Ethnicity GJB2, GJB6, 12S rRNA
1 Profound sensorineural on right, severe conductive on left; Congenital Internal auditory canal hypoplasia, hypoplastic vestibulocochlear nerve on right; External auditory canal atresia, malformed ossicles on left None reported Hispanic Heterozygous GJB2 V27I polymorphism, no mutations or other variants found
2 Severe to profound on right, moderate to severe on left, mixed, progressive; Early childhood, sudden, with head trauma and ear infection Bilateral enlarged vestibular aqueducts; Disequilibrium; History of ear infections and possible meningitis None reported Caucasian No mutations or variants found
3 Moderate to severe, bilateral, sloping audiogram, sensorineural, progressive; Childhood to young adulthood None Consistent with autosomal dominant inheritance Caucasian No mutations or variants found
4 Moderate on right, mild to moderate on left, sensorineural, progressive; Childhood None Hearing impaired sibling (progressive, mild on right, mild to moderate on left, sensorineural; childhood onset; renal malformation); hearing impaired grandparent (unknown severity, possibly noise-induced) Uncertain: Caucasian/Mixed Caucasian No mutations or variants found
