Mutations of the <i>MYO15A</i> gene are the third most common cause of hereditary hearing loss. Using next-generation sequencing combined with auditory tests, two novel compound heterozygous variants c.2802_2812del/c.5681T>C and c.5681T>C/c.6340G>A in the <i>MYO15A</i> gene were identified in probands from two irrelevant Chinese families. Auditory phenotypes of ...[more]
