Phenotypic analyses and mutation screening of the SLC26A4 and FOXI1 genes in 101 Taiwanese families with bilateral nonsyndromic enlarged vestibular aqueduct (DFNB4) or Pendred syndrome [0.03%]
101例双侧非综合征性耳蜗扩大伴听力损失(DFNB4)或 Pendred 综合征家系的临床分析及 SLC26A4 和 FOXI1 基因突变筛查
Chen-Chi Wu,Ying-Chang Lu,Pei-Jer Chen et al.
Chen-Chi Wu et al.
Recessive mutations in the SLC26A4 gene are responsible for nonsyndromic enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA) and Pendred syndrome. However, in some affected families, only 1 or 0 mutated allele can be identified, as well as no clear correlat...
