[Bilateral congenital profound hearing loss and hypospadias--a new syndrome?].
Five children with hypospadia and profound hearing loss were presented to the Clinic for Speech and Communication Disorders of the University of Mainz. Anamnestic and laboratory investigations strongly suggest, that the malformations are interrelated and may represent a new syndrome. Therefore it appears to be helpful to carry out a routine hearing check in children, who are hospitalized for the first surgical treatment of hypospadias.
