Genetic Determinants of Non-Syndromic Enlarged Vestibular Aqueduct: A Review [PDF]
Audiology Research, 2021 Hearing loss is the most common sensorial deficit in humans and one of the most common birth defects. In developed countries, at least 60% of cases of hearing loss are of genetic origin and may arise from pathogenic sequence alterations in one of more ...

Vestibular Dysfunction in Patients with Enlarged Vestibular Aqueduct [PDF]
Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2015 ObjectiveEnlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA) is the most common inner ear malformation. While a strong correlative relationship between EVA and hearing loss is well established, its association with vestibular dysfunction is less well understood.

Increased diagnosis of enlarged vestibular aqueduct by multiplex PCR enrichment and next‐generation sequencing of the SLC26A4 gene [PDF]
Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2021 Background The enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA) is the commonest malformation of inner ear accompanied by sensorineural hearing loss in children. Three genes SLC26A4, FOXI1, and KCNJ10 have been associated with EVA, among them SLC26A4 being the most ...

When is a Vestibular Aqueduct Enlarged?
Philippine Journal of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, 2018 A ten-year-old boy with bilateral moderate sensorineural hearing loss underwent computerized tomographic (CT) imaging (GE Brightspeed, Wisconsin, USA) of the temporal bone as part of the work-up to determine the etiology of his condition.
