Genetic counselling for isolated hearing loss.
An investigation into the causes of sensorineural hearing loss in young children has been used as a basis for determining risk factors for parents of children with a hearing loss of unknown origin having a further affected child and for the defect to be passed on to a subsequent generation. The degree of hearing loss likely to be found if further children are affected, is examined.
