Genetic heterogeneity in patients with enlarged vestibular aqueduct and Pendred syndrome [PDF]
Background Pathogenic variants in the SLC26A4 gene, encoding for Cl−/HCO3 − and I− anion transporter pendrin, are associated with non-syndromic hearing loss with enlarged vestibular aqueduct (NSEVA) and Pendred syndrome (PDS). In the Caucasian population,

Molecular basis of hearing loss associated with enlarged vestibular aqueduct
. Enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA) is a radiologic malformation of the inner ear most commonly seen in children with sensorineural hearing loss. Most cases of EVA with hearing loss are caused by biallelic mutations of SLC26A4.
