Eight males in 4 generations with hearing impairment were observed in a kindred; family transmission suggested X-linked recessive inheritance. In previously reported cases of X-linked sensorineural hearing loss, hearing impairment was usually severe to profound and was either present at birth or manifested by 5 years of age. In the present cases, rapid onset of a bilateral sensorineural hearing loss occurred during adolescence and did not generally progress beyond moderate impairment. Significant deterioration in seech production did not usually result.
在一个家族中观察到4代8名男性患有听力障碍;家族遗传显示为X连锁隐性遗传。在先前报道的X连锁感音神经性听力损失病例中,听力障碍通常为重度至极重度,要么出生时就存在,要么在5岁前出现。在本病例中,双侧感音神经性听力损失在青春期迅速发作,一般不会进展到中度以上的损害。通常不会导致语音产生的显著恶化。
