Otorhinolaryngology
Approximately 80% of prelingual deafness has a genetic origin and, to date, more than 6,000 alterations have been identified that cause Non-Syndromic Hearing Loss and more than 400 syndromes that cause hearing loss.

DG Otorhinolaryngology
249 genes
A targeted exome that includes more than 240 genes associated or potentially associated with the development of hearing loss makes it possible to identify the molecular cause of hearing impairment in these patients.

Non-syndromic hearing loss
Hypoacusis presents a great genetic heterogeneity, being known, to date, more than 6,000 alterations causing Non Syndromic Hypoacusis. We offer the study of different targeted exomes for this type of hearing loss.
Studies included
DG Non-Syndromic Hearing Loss (122 genes)
NS AD hearing loss (44 genes)
Hearing loss NS AR (73 genes)
X-linked NS hearing loss (6 genes)
Mitochondrial NS hearing loss (10 genes)

Syndromic hearing loss
More than 400 syndromes with hearing loss are known, making their genetic study complex. That is why we offer a general study of different syndromes that cause hearing loss, as well as the study of the most frequent syndromes independently.
Studies included
DG Syndromic hearing loss (128 genes)
Waardenburg syndrome (8 genes)
Branchio-oto-renal syndrome (3 genes)
Pendred Syndrome (3 genes)
Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (2 genes)
Alport syndrome (3 genes)
Mohr-Tranebjaerg syndrome (1 gene)
Alström syndrome (1 gene)
Wolfram syndrome (2 genes)
Perrault Syndrome (3 genes)
