What are the characteristics of syndromic hearing loss?
The characteristics of the hearing loss depend on the syndrome. Some syndromes are associated with conductive hearing loss. Other syndromes are associated with sensorineural or mixed hearing loss. The degree of hearing loss also depends on the type of syndrome. More importantly, syndromes are a set of characteristics that affect other parts of the body. Other parts of the body that are often affected are the eyes, face, head, heart, bones, and kidneys.
