The most prevalent ENT disorders are those that affect hearing. Approximately 1 in 1,000 children is born with a severe hearing impairment, and in at least half of these cases the cause is inherited. In recent years, considerable progress has been made in the field of molecular genetic studies on hereditary sensorineural hearing impairment, and it has recently become possible to make genetic diagnoses based on molecular tests in an increasing number of otologic disorders. This book provides practitioners with a concise overview of advances in this important field of medicine and will facilitate improved management of patients with ENT disorders.
