A Family of H723R Mutation for Associated with Enlarged Vestibular Aqueduct Syndrome [PDF]
Recessive mutations of the SLC26A4 (PDS) gene on chromosome 7q31 can cause sensorineural deafness with goiter (Pendred syndrome, OMIM 274600) or NSRD with goiter (at the DFNB4 locus, OMIM 600791).

Two novel SLC26A4 mutations in Iranian families with autosomal recessive hearing loss [PDF]
Objective: Due to the fact that SLC26A4 has been suggested as the second cause of hearing loss (HL) in Iran as well as many other countries, obtaining more comprehensive information about SLC26A4 mutations can facilitate more efficient genetic services ...

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.
